Designed by the renowned military architect Vauban in 1689, it was built to protect the port city from sea invasions. Accessible by foot during low tide, this iconic granite fortress offers panoramic views of Saint-Malo's walled city and the surrounding coastline. Visitors can explore the fort's ramparts, learn about its storied past through guided tours, and even catch re-enactments of historical events.
