This district grew up around the salt, brandy, paper, saffron and cannon trades

From the end of the 13th century, this district developed around the salt, brandy, paper, saffron and cannon trades. It was home to a hospital, a naval college, inns and trading posts. A popular and lively district, it fell into decline after the arrival of the railroads in the 19th century, which sounded the death knell of river trade. Now that it has been rehabilitated around the new marina, l'Houmeau has taken on a new lease of life, with Angoulême's media library, l'Alpha, with its unique architecture, and the footbridge linking the district to the station.

C'est quartier du port mais rien à voir avec le port de La Rochelle. Il n'y a que 4 ou 5 bateau fluviaux donc un bateau promenade/restau. C'est une belle esplanade gazonnée où il est agréable de s'étendre en regardant passer les barques d'aviron sur la Charente.

C'est le quartier du port avec le départ des bateaux-croisières sur la Charente. Nombreuses formules allant d'une heure et quart de navigation à des promenades avec déjeuner sur la Charente .
