 The surroundings of Saint Malo - Les rochers sculptés
The carved rocks of Rothéneuf: Heads standing face to the sea, various
chimeras coming straight from the imaginary of a heavily handicapped
priest who carved nearly 300 rocks between 1870 and 1895. _ The
malouinières: These buildings reflect the golden age of Saint Malo.
They were built during the 17 and 18th century for the various
ship-owners, bourgeois and traders of that time. Two of them open their
gates during the estival period: « la ville Bague » in Saint Coulomb
and « la |
Chipaudiere » in Paramé. _ The manor of Jacques Cartier: The
last residence of the explorer, is located in Limoëlou-Rothéneuf. It
became a museum visited the summer. _ The Vauban buildings: The
national fort, the island of “grand Bé” and the fort of “petit Bé” are
visible from the ramparts. However, it is necessary to await the low
tide to visit them. |
