September 3, 2022,Kreuz und quer durch St. Malo ❤
We really liked St. Malo. The entire old town is surrounded by an impressive 1,754 m long city wall, which you can completely walk on. There are lots of nice shops and good restaurants in the lively streets. After the tour of the city wall and a delicious lunch, we strolled all over the city and also visited the micro-zoo, …

From Mont-Saint-Michel to the west lies the port city of Saint-Malo with its charming old town, still "protected" by the city walls. You can walk along the city walls around the old town and enjoy the view of the city, the harbor, or the beach and the beautiful sea. Just beware of the low-flying, aggressive seagulls 🙄... especially with food …

We were able to park our bikes conveniently at the tourist information center—there are bike racks there—and then explore the Ville Close on foot. Saint Malo had already dressed up for the Tour de France.

Instead of visiting Mont Saint Michel in the forecast for heavy rain, we headed to Saint Malo, the former corsair capital.
Even on the 3km walk from the parking lot to the old town center, there were interesting things to see...
While I was walking along the city walls, a very strong gust of wind blew my hat into the …

Today we were in Saint-Malo, a port city in Brittany. Surrounded by high granite walls, the old town was once a stronghold for privateers (pirates sanctioned by the king).
There was real life here. First we circled the city on the city wall, which leads completely around it, to then explore the old town and the beach inside and outside.
