Well-preserved castle with free entry right on the beach and great views, albeit very few of the sophisticated Vauban defenses seem to have endured.

Fort Fouras was actually built on the site of a Roman castle. Its purpose is to defend the mouth of the river against invasions. It was in service and actively occupied and used until 1927.
