The tower, with a superb panorama serving as a fortification of the castle, built by the princes of Talmont, houses the Sea Museum.

In 1622, Soubise, a Protestant chieftain, seized the castle built by the princes of Talmont in the 15th century and had fortifications built there. Garrison under Louis XIII, bombed in 1796 by the Anglo-Dutch, bought by the State in 1835, restored, the castle houses the Museum of the Sea. When you reach the top of the tower you will discover the superb panoramic view and the 1911 orientation table. The first fire dates back to 1593. In the XVIIth century, the fire of the Chaume is the only lighthouse of Vendée.

Tour d'Arundel & Château St-Clair aux Sables-d'Olonne
La Tour d'Arundel et le Château St-Clair sont situés dans le quartier de la Chaume aux Sables-d'Olonne. La Tour d'Arundel interpelle par son extérieur intéressant et sa situation géographique surprenante : elle est visible depuis les grands parkings jouxtant le Phare de la Petite Jetée. Explicatif à disposition à l'entrée. Visite possible payante de l'exposition « Musée de la Mer ».

Ce peut être un excellent but de promenade au départ des Sables (traverser le chenal via la navette) : la visite est fort intéressante

Au niveau des musées, c'est un peu court. Quelques jolies maquettes mais nous en avons vite fait le tour... Par contre une vue superbe sur l'ensemble des Sables d'Olonne

Superbe vue en haut de la tour , le ticket d'entée est modique et je vous conseille de visiter le petit musée dédié au monde la mer qui se trouve au pied de la mer

Superbe sur la côte et sur la ville, la vue sur les 3 kilomètres de sable fin est extraordinaire, le petit musée de la mer vaut le détour, on y apprend beaucoup de choses
