Postcard La Rochelle – Vieux Port

This postcard pays tribute to the Old Port of La Rochelle, an iconic site rich in history and an essential part of the city’s maritime soul. Since the Middle Ages, this port has played a central role in the economic and cultural development of La Rochelle, once a key trading hub with the New World. Its quays, lined with arcaded houses and bustling terraces, have seen centuries of ships, merchants, and travelers come and go.

Today, the Old Port of La Rochelle remains a vibrant and beloved place, where daily life and tourism meet in a unique atmosphere. In this illustration, Lotza captures the distinctive features that give the port its charm: the small red-and-white lighthouse, the colorful market halls, and the Ferris wheel that adds a playful note to the horizon. The peaceful waters reflect a scene both lively and serene, echoing the rhythm of the tides and the passing of time.

More than just a picture, this creation is a window onto the history and gentle energy of one of the most picturesque corners of the French Atlantic coast. With this postcard, Lotza offers a humble tribute to La Rochelle and invites you to bring a piece of this timeless seafront home.
