Filmed on the famous fortification of the same name located between the islands of Aix and Oléron, Fort Boyard is a TV show in which a team of participants take on a variety of physical and mental challenges (speed, agility, endurance, strength, etc.). The aim is to collect keys that will allow them to access the treasure room. In this room, they must open hidden compartments containing riddles to be solved to finally obtain coins called "boyars". This show is characterized by the "people of the fort", who contribute to reinforcing the mysterious and fantastic atmosphere of the place.
