Review:
Designed in the 17th century under the direction of King Louis XIV, Fort de la Conchee is part of a string of forts built off the coast of Saint-Malo to keep the English and Dutch from entering France. Centuries later it was demilitarized by the French, but the Germans commandeered it during World War II and it was bombed by the Allies during the liberation of Saint-Malo. This historical monument is currently in the last stages of a multi-year restoration project. Until the restoration is complete, visits to the fort are scheduled only during the annual European Heritage Days at the end of September.
