    A beautiful place for a grave

      Grave of the famous writer, minister, ....

      Translated by Google •

        Chateaubriand's grave lies on the tidal island of Grand Bé, off the coast of Saint-Malo, and is only accessible at low tide. The writer wished to be buried in a place directly exposed to the sea and the wind. Therefore, his grave, without an inscription and with one side open to the Atlantic, stands on a small rise on the island. It is a deliberately simple memorial that expresses his close connection to the Breton coast.
