Sadi Carnot shelter
Why take advantage?
Completed in 1943, the Sadi Carnot shelter is one of Brest's underground shelters designed to protect the population during the bombardments of the Second World War. Over 250 m long, it is now a place of remembrance for peace, where you can learn about the lives of the people of Brest during the Occupation.
