The Napoleonic Battery

Historic site and monument

Ramatuelle
Below Cap Camarat, the stone remains of a Napoleonic battery bear witness to the defense of the coast against possible attacks from the sea at the time of the 1804 blockade.
From 1804, France is subject to a stric blockade by the coalition of European countries. Napoleon will organize the defense to protect themselves from dangers coming from the sea, installing batteries all allong the coast. You can see one of them on the coastal path. She was “army of three parts on lookout”. Note the Powder Keg, the small domed building protected by offshore rocks.
