THE STRENGTHS
Of the five forts on Port-Cros, witness to the island's tumultuous military past, only the Estissac fort is open to visitors
Port-Cros' five forts bear witness to the island's tumultuous military past. With the exception of the Port-Man fort, set back in the bay, all are located along the island's transverse line, and are linked by Port-Cros' only paved road. The route des forts, which begins in the village and ends at the Fort de la Vigie, was built in the 19th century to transport the stones used in the construction of the Forts de la Vigie and de l'Eminence. Please note: Fort de l'Estissac is the only fort open to the public.
