(Redirected from La Pallice)'La Pallice' is the industrial harbour of the city of
La Rochelle,
France. It is a commercial harbour in deep water, named after the French philosopher
La Pallice. The large
submarine bunker built during
World War II still stands there, although it is not being used. La Pallice is equipped with oil unloading equipment, and mainly handles
tropical wood. It is also the location of the fishing fleet, which was moved from the old harbour at the center of the city during the 1980s.
