Interesting facts about this location
Camaret Bay
Camaret Bay is a small bay on the north coast of Brittany, France. In 1694 it was the site of the battle of Camaret, a naval action between French and English forces, which culminated in a disastrous amphibious landing by the English as part of an attempt to seize the nearby port of Brest.

Fort de la Fraternité
The Fort de la Fraternité (fort of brotherhood) is a fort located on the îlot du Diable in Roscanvel, France. The whole complex is now in ruins, though a gunpowder magazine is still standing, with a roof of large rectangular tiles and elaborate guttering. The fort was built in 1791 (around a gun battery built in 1695) as part of the defences around the goulet de Brest.

Îlot des Capucins
Îlot des Capucins (Islet of the Capuchins) is a rocky islet at the foot of a cliff in the commune of Roscanvel on the Crozon peninsular. Its name comes from a rock near the island, shaped like a praying monk. It has a strategic position at the entrance to the goulet de Brest and so a fort sited on it controlled the whole of Camaret bay, with views stretching from pointe du Grand Gouin (to the southwest), to fort de Bertheaume (to the northwest).
