THE NATIONAL FORT
Fort located on Plage de l'Eventail, opposite the Château de Saint-Malo, accessible at low tide from Cale Saint-Vincent
Located on the Éventail beach opposite Saint-Malo castle, the Fort National was built in 1689 by Garangeau to Vauban's plans and on the orders of the Sun King. Accessible at low tide from the cale Saint-Vincent, it can be visited when the French flag is raised. The ammunition dungeon, the bastion, the Spanish-style door, the powder magazine and the cistern hood are all points of interest in this symbol of Malouin history. Tales of legend, memories of Chateaubriand or the remains of the Second World War are all yours to discover.

Et être à Saint Malo sans visiter le Fort National, c'est quand même dommage.
