Exposition – Le Centre d’Interprétation de l’Architecture et du Patrimoine

Monday, April 20

CIAP rez-de-mer du Palais des Congrès, 42 av des Congrès 17200 Royan

The CIAP recounts the urban and architectural evolution of Royan, from its origins to the present day, recalling the highlights of its development.

It functions as a “call” to the outside world, pushing the visitor to discover the city or to re-enchant their view of an everyday world. The visitor discovers 5 thematic and chronological sections in the permanent exhibition. Different devices (models, projections, screens, games, reconstructions) provide a better understanding of the architectural and urban evolution of Royan.
