Comment

Typing error on the token: it's not "Toureau" but "Taureau".

The Château du Taureau is located in the commune of Plouezoc'h, on the Bay of Morlaix in Finistère. It's a fort built on a rocky islet in the open sea. Regardless of the tidal range, it is never accessible on foot. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_du_Taureau
