Places to see in ( Saint Malo - France ) La Cite d'Aleth
Aleth or city of Aleth (also written Alet ) was once the capital of the Celtic people of Coriosolites (except the period when Corseul , held this privilege), then was a Gallo-Roman stronghold, a city in the Middle Ages and finally a fortress in the following centuries. Aleth is located on the north coast of Brittany (the Emerald Coast ) at the mouth of the Rance . It is located on a promontory occupied today by Saint-Servan , former municipality and district of the town of Saint-Malo since 1967.
From the Neolithic , it was invested by man. The Phoenicians approached there before reaching the Rance ; they left a Hellenic cross carved in the rock at the Holy Father's Cove. They began to trade between the region and the big island ( Great Britain ). In 80 BC , the Coriosolites , one of the five Celtic tribes occupying Armorica , settled there and built a city which they made their capital. The pagus Aleti , located east of the Rance was a pagus , that is to say, an administrative subdivision of Domnonée. The sea level at that time was 8 meters below the current level.
The city will be occupied by the Romans, who burned it around the year 10 , under the reign of Tiberius, perhaps in connection with local revolts, and it is then abandoned in favor of Corseul . Alet disappeared to become Reginca (also known as the Rance ). Stone constructions made their appearance. It was the seat of the Legion of Mars ( Martenses ) in the Gallo-Roman era.
Around 270 or 280, in a general context of insecurity, the authorities fortify the promontory of Alet. A rampart 3 to 4 meters high is built following the outline of the cliffs, over a length of 1400 m . The rampart is equipped with square towers. Roman fortifications, there remains today only a section of wall facing the intramural city of Saint-Malo and some of the foundations of the enclosure of the Solidor Tower .
At the end of the xvii th century , the area now known as the city name of Aleth, has multiple batteries to protect the entrance of the Rance. Vauban , then inspector general of the fortifications of the king, warns the Malouins that the lack of fortifications on this height runs a risk to the city: Fortify me these heights beyond, a few days, twenty mortars will put you in ashes . But it will be necessary to wait several incursions English so that a real fortification of the city of Aleth is made. In 1759, the chief engineer of the city of Malouine, knight Charles Mazin, builds a large artillery fort capable of defending Saint-Malo, its port, access to the Rance and the hinterland (the present Saint -Servan). It is this fort that is still visible today.

LA VIEILLE VILLE DE SAINT-MALO
L'histoire de Saint-Malo remonte à la Protohistoire celtique, où cette région correspond à l'ancien centre maritime du peuple gaulois des Coriosolites, installés à la cité d'Aleth (actuel quartier de Saint-Servan).
Sous l'influence des Romains, la ville de Corseul, dans les terres, se développe aux dépens de la cité d'Aleth, qui reste un port important. À la fin du IIIe siècle, les Romains choisissent de fortifier Aleth, tandis qu'à cette époque, le rocher de Canalch (Canalchius insulae), situé dans la plaine marécageuse formée à l'embouchure de la Rance, qui accueillera la future ville de Saint-Malo est encore inhabité.
Lors du retrait de l'armée romaine vers 420, Aleth subit de nombreuses attaques venues du Nord. Vers 507, saint Aaron se retire des « tentations du monde », sur un rocher de Kalnach et y construit un oratoire. Il est rejoint par saint Maclou, venant de l'actuel Pays de Galles, vers 538. L'îlot surnommé dans un premier temps « rocher d'Aaron », devient le « rocher de Saint-Malo » à la mort de son compagnon, en 541.
L'apogée de Saint-Malo se termine à la Révolution française qui ne l'épargne pas. Saint-Malo continue ensuite de développer la pêche, notamment pour Terre-Neuve. À la fin du XIXe et au XXe siècle, Saint-Malo développe le tourisme, notamment grâce à ses plages. Lors de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, Saint-Malo est particulièrement touchée, la ville est dévastée par les bombardements américains en 1944. Presque entièrement reconstruite à l'original après la guerre, Saint-Malo est désormais un important centre touristique estival, port de pêche et de plaisance.
