    • The Cistern Workshop: The industrial soul of Bordeaux

      Just seven minutes from Saint-Jean train station, the Atelier des Citernes occupies a former SNCF workshop. This unique community space blends the raw charm of exposed brick with a modern and vibrant atmosphere. A true cultural and culinary hub, the space encourages sharing through a rich program of events, making this historic site an essential meeting point in Bordeaux life.


      A gourmet food hall open to the world

      The culinary journey revolves around six counters run by passionate chefs, eager to share the flavors of their childhood. Visitors can also enjoy two bars, including a wine bar dedicated to local gems. Whether it's for lunch with friends under the high industrial beams or after-work drinks on our sunny terraces, the experience is all about conviviality and gastronomic discovery.


      Moon Creative Workspace: Art for everyone

      Nestled on the first floor, this space was born from the vision of Bordeaux-based artist Robin Gaudillat, who wanted to democratize artistic practice. Between creative workshops for children and adults and an inspiring coworking café, everyone can express their talent. Creative materials are available to allow visitors to experiment freely, alone or in groups, in a stimulating environment.


      A vibrant stage for culture and sport

      The Atelier des Citernes pulsates daily with a rich program of events. Its stage regularly hosts local artists for live music sessions. For sports fans, two giant screens allow them to collectively experience the excitement of major sporting events.

      Finally, for companies seeking a unique setting and turnkey service, a meeting room is available for rent with catering options tailored to groups. Its strategic location just steps from the train station greatly facilitates the organization of business trips.
