It was transformed into the Sarah Bernhardt Museum in the 2000s. Property of the Conservatoire du Littoral, the fort is listed as a historical monument since 2000, and labeled Maisons des Illustres in 2011, and a large part of the 46-hectare estate has been transformed since 1984 into the golf course of Belle-Île-en-Mer.
