Fortifications of Saint-Malo
The Fortifications of Saint-Malo are a series of defensive walls and structures surrounding the historic city of Saint-Malo, located in Brittany, France. Built primarily in the 17th century, these fortifications were designed to protect the city from naval attacks and invasions. The walls are made of granite and feature several towers, gates, and bastions that enhance their defensive capabilities.
Today, the fortifications are a popular tourist attraction, offering stunning views of the English Channel and the surrounding area. Visitors can walk along the ramparts, exploring the rich history of the city and its strategic importance during the Age of Sail.
