Review:
The Museum of Maritime History is located in the former dungeon of the picturesque Citadel of Saint Tropez, featuring exhibits that illustrate 500 years of history of Saint Tropez and its strong links to the sea. Exhibits illustrate various voyages of Saint Tropez seamen across many different world seas, fishing trips along the coast of Provence, long voyages around the Cape Horn on large sailing boats, or expeditions to India on large steamship liners belonging to the famous Far East Company. The museum celebrates the lives of town heroes such as Bailli de Suffren, Hippolyte Bouchard, and General Allard, but also those of the many anonymous sailors who served aboard the navy’s vessels or fought stormy seas while working on merchant ships. Through the town’s maritime history, the museum also shows daily life over centuries.
