Bien qu’au début, on me disait au vieux port que le temps n’était pas bon pour y aller, le lendemain aussi, alors que j’avais déjà acheté mon ticket de visite, toutefois, heureusement, lors de mon avant-dernier jour à Marseille, la sortie était prévue pour 11h tandis que le site web annoncé un mauvais temps (encore), j’y suis allé et j’y ai vécu une bonne expérience, la première fois que j’appris ledit endroit c’étais dans le livre de d’Alexendre Dumas, le comte de Monte-Cristo. J’étais loin de penser qu’un jour j’irai sur l’île et circuler dans ce château, en passant dans ses allés et visité ses cachots.

Your Experience

Perched upon a rocky island on the Mediterranean sits the world-renowned island fort that is Chateau d’If. Right opposite Marseille’s Vieux Port, feel surrounded by a blanket of this city’s history. Immortalized as a landmark in the famous novel from the 19th century, The Count of Monte Cristo, you don’t want to skip out on this opportunity to tour the insides.

This fort was built in 1524 as a prison by François I. With time, it gained the terrifying reputation of being the dying ground for those who resisted and opposed royal power. But the Château d’If was actually built for other noble reasons, the priority of which was given to the safety of Marseilles. Travel back in time and find yourself in the 16th century and relive scenes from the novel and movies in this iconic prison.
