Description

On July 6, 1924, the Planches de Deauville and the Pompeian baths were inaugurated, ushering in an era of seaside elegance and charm for the town of Deauville. On the occasion of the centenary of this emblematic and now legendary site, this historic event is commemorated with pride. This anniversary, marked by emotion and timeless charm, retraces the history of this elegant, romantic, popular and unique seaside promenade. Les Planches: a century of escape and emotion Since its creation, Les Planches de Deauville has attracted millions of visitors, from the anonymous to celebrities and international artists, making it a legendary promenade. Inspired by the promenade decks of ocean liners, they were designed by architect Charles Adda (1873-1938) and are listed as a historic monument. Steeped in orientalism and Art Deco, this wooden promenade is lined with 250 cabins, each separated by openwork lices bearing the names of actors and directors honored since 1987 at the Deauville American Film Festival. Centenary celebrations This anniversary, rich in cultural, sporting and recreational events, offers all audiences a journey through time. From May to August 2024, the town of Deauville invites all lovers of history, culture and art to join in the festivities and discover the hidden treasures and defining moments that have shaped the identity of Les Planches. Visitors will also be invited to explore this iconic site through an immersive virtual reality experience. Explore a century of history, let yourself be transported by the exceptional atmosphere of Les Planches de Deauville, celebrate this unique heritage and perpetuate the memory of this timeless, emblematic place.
