## Caption

For around two decades, craftsmen and volunteers in northern France have been building a full-scale replica of the Jean Bart, a large warship from the navy of Louis XIV. ⁣
⁣
The project showcases traditional skills including blacksmithing and ship carpentry, with hopes of eventually seeing the vessel afloat in Gravelines.⁣
