HERITAGE: Restoration of the Marigot Bay cannon | FAXINFO

September 16, 2025

The community of Saint-Martin recently carried out the restoration of the cannon located on the Marina Fort Louis.

Restored by a specialist company, the structure was returned to its gun carriage and its historic location on September 12. A testament to the defensive role of Fort Louis in the XNUMXth century, this cannon serves as a reminder of the site's strategic importance and contributes to the enhancement of local heritage.
