Summary

[edit]
Description

Au début de notre ère, le territoire occupé par le marais d'Olonne était couvert par la mer.

C'était le golfe d'Olonne, séparé de l'océan par l'ile Vertime (aujourd'hui la forêt d'Olonne).

Les premières salines remontent à l'époque gallo-romaine. Puis c'est au Moyen-Age et jusqu'au 19ème siècle qu'elles connaissent leur plein essor.

L'exploitation du sel est à l'origine du village de sauniers qu'est aujourd'hui l'Ile d'Olonne.

De nos jours, la plupart des marais servent à l'élevage de poissons (anguilles, mulets,..).

Sept marais salants sont encore en activité en 2011.
