The Port Cailhau, thirty-five metres tall, was integrated into the city walls. In 1864, it was rented by a public letter writer and a person whose job was to weigh salt. They were both evicted in order to renovate the monument.



There is a magnificent view of the oldest bridge in Bordeaux, the Pont de Pierre, from here.







An exhibition displays the tools and materials used for construction purposes at the time the Porte Cailhau was built and an audio-visual presentation pieced together from old films immerses us in the world of stone masonry.

Created in the 18th century, this 10-hectare formal garden was transformed into a landscaped garden between 1856 and 1858 by L.B. Fisher. The site features an arboretum, a botanical garden, a library branch and, worth a visit, the Natural History Museum.
