Citadelle de Saint-Tropez - Musée d'histoire maritime

Steeped in history and overlooking the sparkling gulf, the Citadel is one of the most beautiful viewpoints on the Riviera. I loved exploring its cobblestone paths and the maritime museum inside. This was my second time visiting Saint-Tropez and I’m so glad I made the time to come up to the citadel.

Good views. Long walk with steps to get to the top where the museum entrance is. The museum is a $5 entrance fee, mostly artifacts with information boards. Appreciated the English and French information making it doable for tourists.

Good place but more of walk involved as its on top of mountain. Entrance fee was 5 euro and view from top was amazing.

The maritime museum in Saint-Tropez is located on a hill with a beautiful view over the small harbor. A charming spot with interesting exhibits and a great perspective on the town's nautical history.

Amazing view of St.Tropez and surrounding coast not a lot of tourists even in August peka times, there's a naval museum with cool stuff, bit stuffy air. Make sure to take some water because there's a bit of a climb to a hill. There's also peacocks roaming about

To be honest this is probably the best place to visit in Saint Tropez. You get a nice panoramic view of the entire Saint Tropez at just 5 euros, and you get to learn about the cool maritime history behind the town of Saint Tropez (before it became a touristy yacht town). There are peacocks too!

Such a wonderful museum and look out point. Full of great info on St Tropez and its rich maritime history. Beautiful views of many different harbors and pretty peacocks all around the grounds. Only 5 euro to get in in 2025.

Interesting Citadel with naval museum inside. The view from the top over St Tropez is nice.

After breakfast at La Tarte Tropezienne, we walked up hilly streets to La Citadelle de Saint Tropez - Musee D'Histoire Maritime (Saint Tropez Citadelle, a Maritime History Museum in English). This citadelle is a 17th century Fort overlooking the Mediterranean which has partly been constructed into a maritime museum. Much of the fort has remained intact and the museum is located in one of the small doors inside the fort. It's very extensive and if i recall, 3 Euro's a person so really cheap compared to more famous museums in large cities. It's one of the central attractions in the town so it's a must see if you're visiting St. Tropez for more than a few hours.

Amazing views of the ocean and city! Must see and the museum was interesting. Nicely preserved.
