The
Hydraulic Node at Bazouin
On the
borders of 3 communes: Maille, Damvix and La Ronde where 3 departments meet:
Deux Sevre, Charente-Maritime and the Vendee this group of engineering works
constitutes a major site in determining the hydaulic management of the wetlands
of the Marais Poitevin.
From 1855 to 1960 the site has seen successive changes to modernize these impressive mechanisms. The Deux Sevre dam was built first, such installations maintain constant water levels in the marshes of the Marais Poitevin.
Today modern techniques have replaced man in operating the works. The dam and the release of water are controlled by radio systems and electronic probes
