The 23rd June : arrival of Le Belem

This year, in the presence of a number of French and foreign VIPS, the opening of this 7th “Bordeaux Celebrates Wine” event is commemorated by a number of highlights.  The majestic and festive arrival of the sailing ship LE BELEM in the late afternoon will kick off the event.


Le Belem

The famous sailing ship LE BELEM will again moor in front of the Bordeaux shipping exchange.

This stopover is the occasion for a new encounter with Bordeaux as well as with Quebec. This wonderful ambassador of the French flag had crossed the Atlantic to celebrate the 400th anniversary of this French-speaking town and a friend of Bordeaux.

The Fondation Belem

Fondation BelemThe newly refurbished Belem was put back to sea in 1985,  the Belem Foundation having decided she would sail as a training ship. She is manned by a crew of 16 experienced officers and men, chosen from the ranks of the merchant navy ; not only are they fully qualified to sail this very special ship in maximum safety conditions, they are also skilled teachers, since the Belem's basic mission is to promote the knowledge and understanding of France's maritime heritage. The Belem has a capacity of up to 48 trainees.
