Culture
Guided tours of Le Fâ lead through the ancient city and its two distinctive areas, the baths and the sanctuary. These include the round temple and various rooms in the baths.
The Le Fâ Museum houses almost 1,000 objects recovered during excavations. They are presented in three themed galleries covering everyday life, architecture and trade.
The Le Fâ Museum also displays 3D models and 3D images of the Roman baths and the round temple.
The Church of Saint-Pierre is a Neo-Gothic building with a Latin-cross floor plan.
The Port des Monards and its canal probably date back to the Middle Ages, when the silting-up of the banks of the Gironde estuary influenced the formation of marshland.
Landscape and Orientation
The Pyramid of La Garde is privately owned but can be seen from the road.
It served as a landmark for ships crossing the Gironde estuary.
