What do Acadia, Quebec, Louisiana and Poitou have in common?
A place of discovery and remembrance: Take a plunge into the past and relive the history of the families from Loudun who left in the 17th century to colonise the territories of New France. In the heart of the Loudunais region, the Maison de l’Acadie has just reopened its doors with a new, more attractive and interactive museography.
