episode 3

We've landed in the middle of the 100 Years' War!

ON THE TRAIL OF HISTORY

Castillon-la-Bataille was the site of one of the last great battles of the Hundred Years' War. A key moment in the history of France, often mentioned in school textbooks, but much more vivid than you might think.

On this site steeped in memory, Les Moustachus plunge into the heart of the Middle Ages and meet the enthusiasts who bring to life the era of knights, swords and great battles. It's a life-size immersion in the daily life of the combatants of yesteryear.

Today, the atmosphere is more peaceful: heritage, nature and the art of living. But history is still very much present, in the stones, the stories and the spectacular reconstructions.
