Demeure de Corsaire, Maritime history museum in Saint-Malo, France.

The Demeure de Corsaire museum displays an extensive collection of maritime artifacts, including navigation tools, ship models, and historical weapons from the privateering era.

Built in 1725 for François Auguste Magon, a prominent privateer and Director of the Indies Company, this mansion served as both a residence and trading post.

The museum exhibits demonstrate the economic impact of privateering on Saint-Malo through collections of porcelain, spices, and trading goods from maritime expeditions.

Located at 5 rue d'Asfeld in Saint-Malo, the museum offers guided tours in French from Monday to Saturday between 10:00-11:30 AM and 2:30-5:00 PM.

The mansion features underground cellars positioned below sea level and a hidden staircase, reflecting the secretive nature of privateering operations.
