Citadel of Saint-Tropez - Museum of Maritime History

The ancient CitadelledeSt-Tropez is a 17th-century coastal fortress. Many important battles have taken place on the coastline of St. Tropez in history, the most recent of which was the French landing in 1944 when the Allies broke through the Atlantic Wall fortifications designed by Rommel here (and in Normandy) in the late World War II. Opening hours: 10:00-12:30, 13:30-18:30 from April to September. 10:00-12:30, 13:30-17:30 from October to March. Tickets are 4 euros for adults and 2.5 euros for discounts.

The history of this castle can be traced back to the Middle Ages. It has now been restored. It is mainly a military facility that protects this busy port town. Its appearance looks relatively ordinary and is generally yellowish-brown in color.

This castle was mainly used for defensive purposes in the past. There is a large watchtower facing the sea. The castle is surrounded by the port and alleys of the old city. The castle is not large, but it can be seen that it is built quite exquisitely.

I think the castle in Saint-Tropez is quite ordinary. It doesn't have much momentum and doesn't feel tall at all. Maybe it's because it has too long history. It is located next to the harbor and is quite convenient for visiting.

The castle is located on a small hill next to the port of the old town. It used to be the residence of nobility. It is relatively small and not exquisite, but it is also one of the oldest historical buildings in the area.
