L’Hermione,an historic reconstruction In 1780, the Marquis of Lafayette embarked on the Hermione frigate to join the American insurgents in their struggle for independence.

The faithful replica of the Hermione departed from the C h a re nte - M a r i t i m e co a s t s heading to the United-States on April, 18th 2015, as Lafayette did. A 5-months adventure across the Atlantic and along the US coasts, with 13 ports of call, including the eagerly-awaited stop in New-York, from July 1st to 4th, for the national Independence Day.
