The Fort Carre
The Navette Gratuite bus stops at the Port Vauban. There's
quite a long walk around to the other side of the Fort to find the
entrance. 
The Fort itself is upon a hill.
from where there are wonderful views over the Port Vauban and the town.
The site was occupied by the Greeks who built there a temple of Hermes (Mercury) and when the fort was built around 1550AD a chapel was incorporated into the central courtyard.
