Abri du marin de Sainte-Marine, Maritime shelter museum in Sainte-Marine, Combrit, France

The Abri du Marin stands as a white stone building on Jacques-de-Thézac quay, featuring traditional Breton architecture with blue shutters and a slate roof.

Built in 1904 by philanthropist Jacques de Thézac, this shelter provided lodging and medical care for lobster fishermen working at the Sainte-Marine port until the 1970s.

The museum showcases maritime exhibitions about fishing traditions, boat construction, and the development of Brittany's seafaring communities through artifacts and model ships.

The museum opens Thursday through Sunday with entry fees of 3 euros for adults and 1.50 euros for children, offering guided tours and temporary exhibitions.

The building remains one of twelve original marine shelters established by Thézac's foundation to combat tuberculosis and alcoholism among Breton fishermen in the early 1900s.
