Saint-Malo, originally built as a walled citadel guarding the mouth of the Rance river, was for centuries home to feared pirates. They’ve all gone to Davy Jones’ Locker, though, and now it’s Brittany’s most-visited city. Walk the bustling streets of the reconstructed old city and the vast beaches, making sure to stop at the Grande Porte, Porte St-Vincent, the town’s castle with its Musée de la Ville and the Grand Aquarium.

Really interesting to hear how this German fortification built into a much older fortress was attacked over several weeks during the liberation of St Malo in 1944. The bunker is well preserved and the guided tour (buy tickets in advance because each tour has limited numbers) is comprehensive and well presented by the guide (in French but understandable and there is a written guide in English). Certainly worth visiting.
