Summary edit

Description

Edifié entre le xve siècle et le xviiie siècle, Saint-Malo, cédé par le duc de Bretagne au roi de France en 1395 puis restitué en 1415 par le roi de France Charles VI au duc Jean V de Bretagne

1424 ; construction du futur château en faisant édifier le Grand Donjon sur l'isthme qui à cette époque est le seul point de passage entre la ville close et le continent.

En 1475 le duc de Bretagne François II fait construire la tour La Générale qui est moins haute que le Grand Donjon

En 1590 le château est pris d'assaut par les habitants de Saint-Malo qui veulent empêcher le gouverneur de livrer la ville aux partisans du roi protestant Henri IV. Le gouverneur est tué au cours de l'émeute.

A compter de 1690 les courtines et les parties supérieures des tours pour permettre l'installation de pièces d'artillerie.


En 1765, Louis XV fait enfermer le procureur général du Parlement de Bretagne.

En 1792 le château est à nouveau pris d'assaut par les malouins. Au xixe siècle, le château devint une caserne. Cet état dura jusqu'en 1921. À cette date, la municipalité acheta une partie des bâtiments pour y installer en 1927, le musée.

Lors de la libération de Saint-Malo en 1944, le château est fortement endommagé et est restauré par la suite.
