Museum of the Iron Mask and Fort Royal
Inside the Fort Royal on Île Sainte-Marguerite, this museum links island archaeology with the history of the Man in the Iron Mask. Allow for ferry travel.
The museum makes the fort more than a scenic backdrop. Its prison history and archaeological displays give substance to a walk on Sainte-Marguerite. Set aside time for both the rooms and fort setting, and plan around ferry travel and the museum’s seasonal opening pattern.
What to look for
The seventeenth-century state prison contains six cells.
