Mont St Michel, near Saint-Malo

Saint-Malo is a coastal city in Brittany, in France’s northwest. Tall granite walls surround the old town, which was once a stronghold for privateers (pirates approved by the king).

The Saint-Malo Cathedral, in the center of the old town, is built in Romanesque and Gothic styles and features stained-glass windows depicting city history.

Nearby can be found La Demeure de Corsaire, an 18th-century privateer’s house and museum; and Mont St Michel, the French equivalent of St Michael’s Mount in Cornwall.
