TOWN PRESENTATION

Some elements show a human presence in prehistoric times as a buffer for Neolithic St. Cybard and a small prehistoric necropolis in Chantegrelet.

The remains of fortifications dating from the civilization of Little Richard were discovered on the town.

The village is situated on the Roman road leading from the site of the Holy Fa. In the Middle Ages, Cozes is an important step on the path of Saint Jacques de Compostela from Trizay or Saint-Jean-d'Angles, the pilgrims through the village on Arces-sur-Gironde and Talmont .
