ROPE HOUSE
Go there and contact
In the south of Armes square, this 400 meter long building, designed by Vauban, was originally used in the manufacture of cordage of sailing ships. This length was necessary to weave together the ropes of sailing ships strand by strand, rolled up on huge drums. This place had two levels of workshops. Inside the rope factory, the vaults supported by two rows of square stone pillars can be discovered in the Service Historique de la Défense library, the only public place of rope-making. The door of the facade of the rope making factory closed the former Jesuit College.
