Fort Saint-Jean stands at the entrance to the Old Port. A footbridge links it with Mucem, while its ramparts and gardens make the historic fort a separate outdoor walk.

Choose Fort Saint-Jean for an outdoor walk through a historic fort at the Old Port entrance. Its ramparts and gardens offer a different experience from Mucem’s exhibitions, even though a footbridge connects the two sites. The visit also places you directly beside the harbour mouth, where the fort’s setting is part of its appeal.
What to look for
Historic fort at the Old Port entrance, with ramparts, gardens and a footbridge to Mucem.
