Description:
- The Croiseur Colbert is one of the country's biggest warships and belongs to the French Navy. Now with a new lease of life as a museum, you can retrace the life of the vessel from her construction in 1953 to her last mission in 1990 during the Gulf War. In addition to the photography exhibitions on board, a visit to the ship gives you a glimpse of what life must have been like for the sailors who lived and worked here. You'll come across all the signs of daily living, from the mess hall to the barber shop, the dentist's cabin and the hospital ward. Guided tours run often and there is free parking in front of the ship. Timings may vary as per season, call or check website for further details.
