A fantastic chance to see Hermione, a replica Concorde-class frigate of the French Navy, as she returns to her home port in Rochefort, France.
Launched in April of 1779 the original Hermione is famed for having taken General Lafayette from Rochefort, France to Boston, USA to deliver the secret news that he had secured 5,500 French troops and 5 frigates to support George Washington in fighting the American War of Independence.
This event date marks the return of the ship to her home port so we cannot say for sure if she will be open to the public on this date. However, the ship will likely remain in Rochefort for the remainder of the year and will likely be open to the public on a regular schedule. Please check their official website for details.
