KOVAR MARTIN

A fantastic place to visit if in the Bordeaux area with loads to see and a lovely restaurant in the citadel... Comptoir Vauban... fabulous food, wine & service in a great location.

I loved the Citadelle, so pretty. Not crowded on the day I visited even with a couple of river cruise boats in.

What a fascinating place, our first visit and we wasn't disappointed 😍

Open all the time and it's free! The information signs explain the history and structures well. The views of the river are awesome. Many of the stores and restaurants are open all afternoon. And little to no crowd on Thursday

Perfect place to enjoy french cuisine znd walk around, there are plenty of restaurant around the area and it is so pretty. There is always a public market outside and a good view even when you just sit down. But keep in mind parking is not easy when it's weekend.

Phenomenal! Don't miss this. The Citadel is huge. You can spend several hours wandering through, on, and under this dramatic, historic site. We arrived by bike and are camping in the Municipal camping area, within the Citadel walls. Absolutely amazing. We had a delicious lunch at Le Bastion, a rustic restaurant, also within the Citadel.

Very cool…we had a guide who had keys and was able to show us behind the scenes.

A fabulous "Starry" Citadel in great condition. Free to visit and picturesque views over the Gironde river. Many boutique shops and a few cafés. Free Car parking as well as the delightful town of Blaye.
