Situated 12 km from Royan, the caves of Regulus, municipal troglodytic site, are opened to the public from April 6th till November 11th, 2019. Overlooking the estuary of the Gironde and dug in cliffs of limestone, the « holes » of Meschers welcome you in a case of exception. In the beginning, the caves of Meschers were enlarged by man to become in the XIXth century a troglodytic housing environment. The name of Regulus comes from a French ship which, under Napoleon, pursued by the english and was scuttled in front of Meschers. Themes discussed during the visit: place of refuge for the Protestants during the Religious wars, the geology, the estuary, the fishing, the tourism in the XIXth century, the carrelets, the story of Regulus, the legend of Cadet the wrecker and troglodytic housing environment.
