Car boot sale of AS Football de Lamarque

The car boot sale of AS Football de Lamarque

In May, AS Football de Lamarque organizes its annual car boot sale in this village in the Haut-Médoc (33460), famous for its ferry terminal connecting the Médoc peninsula to Blaye. Private sellers set up their stalls in the village center and offer clothes, toys, books, crockery, trinkets, and everyday items. The profits from the day contribute to the funding of the local football club.

Lamarque, a wine village facing the estuary

Lamarque is a commune of about 1,500 inhabitants located on the banks of the Gironde estuary, between Margaux and Saint-Julien-Beychevelle. The village is known for its Fort de Lamarque, a medieval fortress overlooking the estuary, and for its ferry terminal from which the ferry to Blaye departs. The Haut-Médoc appellation produces quality red wines here, and Château de Lamarque, a Cru Bourgeois, is the pride of the commune.
