Mornac-sur-Seudre, Medieval village in Charente-Maritime department, France
The narrow streets of Mornac-sur-Seudre lead to traditional limestone houses, bordered by salt marshes and oyster farming basins.
The castle of Mornac, established in 1022, served as a major lordship of the Arvert Peninsula and withstood English attacks in 1422.
The 18th-century covered market stands as the center of commercial activities where local producers sell salt, oysters, and crafts.
The village features a network of bicycle paths connecting various points of interest, allowing visitors to explore the marshes and port.
Oyster farmers maintain traditional cultivation techniques in shallow basins called claires, where the mollusks develop their distinct taste.
