The citadelle is a military garnison, even in our days. It's impressive as a construction. Definitely worth visiting. There's a fee if you want to take the guided tour inside it.

Tour guide did a great job sharing the interesting history of this historic place. Fantastic views from the top.

Take a guided tour and get lots of good information about the Army unit's history at a still active Army base.

If you like ary history about the wars and see a museum this is the place to go. Very interesting guided tours. The tours are in French and English. You can see the changing of the guard which is intertaning

Having said this, the tour is really fantastic, takes about one hour and you will get to see two separate museums that are housed... More
