Bordeaux Stock Exchange
The Bordeaux Stock Exchange, historically known as Bourse de Bordeaux, was a regional financial hub in southwestern France where traders bought and sold shares, commodities, and other financial instruments. Similar to major exchanges like Paris, it facilitated capital raising, investment, and economic activity for local businesses and investors. Today, it no longer functions as a standalone stock exchange but played a key role in regional commerce from the 19th to early 20th centuries. The site remains a symbol of Bordeaux’s historical financial importance and architectural heritage.
