In 2024, Deauville celebrates 100 years of Les Planches and Les Bains pompéiens. A place for sea bathing, strolling, socializing, games, meetings and events... Les Planches and its art deco cabins, designed by architect Charles Adda and inaugurated on July 6, 1924, have remained Deauville's most visited, surveyed and photographed site ever since.
As part of the centenary celebrations, seven QR codes have been placed at various points of interest along the waterfront, offering a unique immersive experience to discover the Deauville of its origins. Depending on the location of the QR code, 360° views show the evolution of the waterfront and explore its many transformations between 1859 and 1924:
1859: Deauville is still just a marsh.
1870: The seafront is adorned with beautiful Second Empire villas.
1880: After a violent storm, the sea receded 220 meters, creating the lais de mer.
1905: Construction of the first rigid baths.
1913: Deauville is now the summer capital of high society. Construction of palaces, casino and new baths.
1924: Construction of Les Planches and the Pompeian baths
QR code locations: Place des 6 fusillés, esplanade Bar du Soleil, Planches, Place Claude Lelouch, pony-club, opposite the casino, riding school
