      Check it's open before visiting. The tunnels and museum has been closed on the 3 visits I have made there. Great views and impressive defensive ww2 bunkers

      After climbing to the monument, I just wanted to look round the wartime bunker and was ready to pay €6. The guy behind the desk said it was a 2 hour visit and all in French, so I said thank you and left.

      It is sad that so many people lost their lives in this town, not only as soldiers but as the resistance. The monument with all its names is very moving.

      We really enjoyed our visit although delivered almost entirely in French. For 6 euro per adult one gets to see a 45 minute film on the assault on St Malmo 1944. This is followed by a tour of the underground bunker system which we were told took 2,000 men 18 months to build. There are explanatory handouts in English for those whose English is not the best although we found our guide very willing to explain any of our questions in English. The history of the area and its strategic importance in the re-taking of the area by the Allies is all explained and the tour includes a walk through the bunker system which takes about 1 hour. Many opportunities to see photos of the time along with all the war paraphanelia including guns, uniforms, maps, shells etc etc

      The Museum is located in one of the German anti-aircraft bunkers within the fortifications built within the courtyard. We saw a documentary and an exhibition including photographs, models, weapons and documents about WWII in St Malo.On the platform, there were about 30 bunkers erected which were serviced by underground passages with pillboxes. The whole region was fortified, this included Cézembre, the island view in front of you, the Pointe de la Varde (Varde’s cape at the end of the long beach in St. Malo), and a radar at Cap Fréhel. The fort of St. Servan was the German headquarters for the Garrison Commander, Andreas M. Karl Von Aulock who vowed to "fight to the last man" even if that last man was himself. Von Aulock was a veteran of Stalingrad and he was very experienced in street fighting and defence of a city fortification.When the Allies invaded Normandy in June they arrived at St Malo on August 2nd, but they did not have enough men to successfully conquer the place, as the vast majority were fighting in Normandy. The Allies decided to shell St. Malo and after 15 days of intense bombings the German surrendered on August 17th. Sadly, more than 70% of St Malo was destroyed and it took twelve years to sensitively rebuild the city like it was before (1948-1960). From the courtyard, you have a really great view, on your right lies St. Malo and in front of you, Dinard. On the day we visited, you could quite clearly see one of the 5 star liners of Silversea disgorging her passengers via. the tenders to & fro into the port to visit the town. It is a worthwhile visit.

      Lovely garden setting very peaceful and a wonderful tribute for people who lost their lives to help others.

      And French language skills, a visit here could be paradise or purgatory. We expected a quick walk-through, but got an hour-long detailed guided visit to the bunker. Our guide delivered in French but spoke English and was willing to answer any questions in English. He was extremely enthusiastic. However, if your interest in WWII is only casual, you may want to opt for a self-guided visit.

      Site closed until late March. However, it is possible to walk about outside in a park like environment next to the bunkers. Popular with local dog walkers so watch where you stand !

      This fort and memorial is well worth a visit during a stay at St.Malo.There is a very well conducted and informed tour available of the WW11 bunkers and tunnel system at a modest price. However if you suffer from claustrophobia, perhaps don't do the tour. If you can stand a little confined spaces then the tour is quite a revelation and full of interesting facts.In any case just a look around the fort and the bunkers is very interesting.
