Saint-Jean-d'Angély

Saint-Jean-d’Angély grew around an abbey on the Boutonne in Saintonge. Its fortified town became a Protestant stronghold during the religious struggles of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. In 1621 Louis XIII besieged it, while Benjamin de Rohan, lord of Soubise, commanded the defenders. The town surrendered after weeks of resistance, losing its communal privileges and its ramparts.
