The Walled Town of Concarneau, known as Ville Close, is a historic fortified town situated in the coastal city of Concarneau in Brittany, France. This medieval enclave is perched on a small island in the harbor, connected to the mainland by a drawbridge. Surrounded by ancient granite ramparts dating back to the 14th century, the Ville Close features narrow cobblestone streets, quaint shops, and charming cafes. Visitors can explore the well-preserved fortifications, visit the local maritime museum, and enjoy panoramic views of the port and surrounding waters.
