Nata come città dei corsari, forte della sua antica tradizione piratesca, Saint Malo ha conservato nei secoli uno spiccato spirito d’indipendenza e di bellicosa autonomia, riscontrabile nelle imponenti fortificazioni protese sull’oceano, che le conferiscono un’aria fiera e maestosa. Saint Malo custodisce un concentrato di storia, cultura, gastronomia, scorci di mare e spiagge battute dai venti: con i suoi forti, i fari e i bastioni, narra storie di pirati e di vascelli, aneddoti di armatori, corsari e marinai erranti. La città emana un fascino davvero incredibile e sembra trasportare i suoi visitatori indietro nel tempo: ammalia con i suoi angoli pittoreschi, resi particolarmente suggestivi grazie alle costruzioni difensive, alle mura che difendono la città e alle case realizzate con il particolare granito Chausey, chiamate les malouinières.

Founded as a city of corsairs, strong in its ancient pirate tradition, Saint Malo has preserved over the centuries a marked spirit of independence and belligerent autonomy, which can be seen in the imposing fortifications stretching out over the ocean, giving it a proud and majestic air. Saint Malo holds a concentration of history, culture, gastronomy, sea views and windswept beaches: with its forts, lighthouses and ramparts, it tells stories of pirates and vessels, anecdotes of ship-owners, privateers and wandering sailors. The town exudes a truly incredible charm and seems to transport its visitors back in time: it bewitches with its picturesque corners, made particularly charming by the defensive constructions, the walls that defend the town and the houses made from the special Chausey granite, called les malouinières.
