The fortified island of Mont Saint-Michel located in Normandy, France. The  island was the inspiration for the design of Minas Tirith in the film The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King. The island was first fortified in the 8th century. It is roughly 600 meters from the French Coast and is occasionally cut off from the mainland by high tides. Photos by Chris Bastian
