About

  • Pets allowed

This hybrid journey with the Archistoire app offers you a trip through time through this unsuspected industrial epic which, at the end of the 19th century, revolutionized the rural district of Hyères that was La Londe les Maures.

Immersing yourself in the daily life of Londoners of that era, discovering the Argentière mine gallery, understanding the industrial architecture of certain districts of the city, or enjoying unprecedented reconstructions, are some of the adventures offered in this virtual tour.

The free app is designed like a 90-minute walking tour starting from Argentière Ouest beach. From the user's smartphone screen, it guides them along the route to each of the 11 featured must-see sites. It opens up 360° panoramas where vintage photos, reconstructions of lost features, and many other surprises are layered. By touching the interactive areas on the screen, this virtual guide reveals anecdotes and documents that are as unique as they are surprising. Archistoire also offers the opportunity to virtually visit inaccessible places or discover faraway locations.

Very easy to use, the application can be used both on site and remotely and offline so that you can enjoy the experience before, during, and after the visit.

To go back in time:
- Download the "Archistoire" app«
- Start the experience remotely or from the starting point located near the pétanque court at Plage de l'Argentière Ouest
- Follow the guide point by point, or according to your own preferences.
- Immerse yourself in 360° panoramas and explore them, a hundred years earlier.
- Touch the interactive areas to access exclusive content.
