In the heart of the city, opening onto a charming garden, the Musée Rochelais d'Histoire Protestante is dedicated to the history of Protestantism in La Rochelle, Aunis and Saintonge. It's a must-see for anyone who really wants to get to know the soul of a city whose stones still bear the imprint of a tumultuous past. Particular emphasis is placed on the 16th and 17th centuries, when La Rochelle was the real capital of the Huguenot party. Handwritten letters, documents and engravings evoke the Refuge countries and the Protestant underground period (18th century).
