Built in 1689 by Vauban, the famous architect under Louis XIV, this strategically located fortification was designed to protect the city of Bordeaux from enemy attacks. Today it is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and overlooks the biggest estuary in Europe – the Gironde. Perched on its rocky outcrop, called ‘The Star and Key of Aquitaine’, it will fill you with wonder.
