St Michael's Mount

St Michael's Mount is found near the town of Marazion, which is one of the oldest towns in England. The town dates from 308 BC, while St Michael's Mount was built in the 1135. St Michael's Mount is the lesser sibling of Mont St Michel in the Normandy Coast of France, and both were established by the same abbot.


St Michael's Mount

Unfortunately, St Michael's Mount was closed on the day we visited. But we arrived during low tide and managed to walk along the beach to the island and walk around for a bit. I had visited Le Mont St Michel in France and wanted to see the differences between the two.
