They are part of the charm of Saint-Malo. Surrounding the corsair city, the ramparts are also a place of stroll very popular with tourists and locals. Too rightly. During this period of confinement, the mayor of Saint-Malo decided to tighten the screw. Friday, he issued a municipal decree to prohibit access to the ramparts until further notice. Barriers have been installed at the various entrances to prevent pedestrians from accessing the ramparts.

To justify his decision, Claude Renoult said he had "noticed a relaxation" Thursday and Friday "with the rise in temperatures". “I know it, the daily ritual of the walk on the ramparts, respecting the rules, was possible for those who live within the walls. But the attraction of the ramparts was too strong to contain the overflows, “added the elected official on his Twitter account.
