LCdr Musée d'art contemporain de Bordeaux dedicates its programming of European Heritage and Matrimony Days to the building that houses it, the Lainé Warehouse, erected in 1824 to serve as a real warehouse of colonial goods.
For the occasion and in partnership with Bordeaux World Heritage, the Capc invites you for an urban bike ride entitled "Decolonial Bordeaux".
Decolonial Bordeaux. Portraits of afro-descendants. First French colonial port in the 18th century, Bordeaux draws its wealth from the sugar trade and slavery. But who knows that more than 5,000 Afro-descendants lived there during the century? This tour invites you to discover the slave and colonial past of the city through the intimate history of these slaves, freed, free of color, métis who lived in Bordeaux.
