It was a prominent role in World War II. It is currently the best watchtower on the French Riviera.
The castle is on the top of the mountain, and the sun just passes by here in the morning. It is beautiful. The castle is open to the outside world and the time is very short every day.
The wartime building is a watchtower. The castle is open to the outside world for a fixed time. If you want to visit, you must grasp the time. I didn't catch up the first time I went.
The Fort Alban is a huge circular castle, which played a great role in the wartime, and many turrets can send out huge supplies.
