For the past fifteen years or so, numerous volunteer organisations in the region have been building traditional Loire boats to bring the heritage of the river back to life.
Hoel and Ninon Jacquin, whose fathers and grandfathers were carpenters, have begun work on building a Loire barge, "La Fillonnerie", a project that started in September 2006 and will continue until September 2007.
A charitable organisation known as the "Charpentiers d’ieau" has been created for the project, with the aim of building heritage boats and designing and/or producing boating accessories. A second organisation, Ancre de Loire, aims to create, organise and participate in cultural events based on the boats.
The boatyard is open to visitors once a month. School visits can be arranged by appointment.
