in La Rochelle
A port city in the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region, open to the Atlantic Ocean, La Rochelle is a renowned destination for learning French in France. It is an active economic hub, combining tourism, maritime activities, scientific research and green technologies.
The city retains a remarkable architectural heritage: its three historic towers, which protected the old port, symbols of its maritime power in the 14th and 15th centuries, and its old districts bear witness to its past as a trading city open to the international market.
The university, oceanographic research centers and innovative companies contribute to its influence. On a cultural level, international students can benefit from various events such as the Francofolies, an internationally renowned music festival taking place in July, and museums such as that of the Nouveau Monde for example.
La Rochelle benefits from a mild climate and a very pleasant living environment, ideal for a French language stay, with its access to the sea, and the proximity of islands such as Aix, Ré, Oléron. Everywhere, we find these small white houses with red roofs characteristic of the region. But also large fine sandy beaches bordered by pine forests and ancient marshes where oysters, the great local specialty, are raised.
