伊夫堡坐落在距馬賽舊港3.5英里處的一個面積3公頃的石灰岩小島上，是一座邊長28米的方形建築，城牆上建有3個開着寬大射擊孔的圓柱形塔樓。伊夫堡最初是由法國國王法蘭西斯一世為加強馬賽防禦而提議修建的，竣工於1531年，建成后不久就被用作監獄。1844年，法國文學巨匠大仲馬以伊夫堡為背景完成了《基督山伯爵》的創作，主人公鄧蒂斯受人陷害而被捕入獄，而這座監牢就是頂頂大名的伊夫堡。

伊夫堡值得一去，從馬賽港坐快艇很快就到，回程的船也很準時。整個城堡因為大仲馬的描繪富有傳奇色彩。這點在参觀體驗上有很明確的導向性，城堡內除了介紹軍事政治文化概況，還把小說里的人物所關押的牢房作了標記。同時島上還有周圍生態的介紹，以及島志。淡季去的，人很少，一般走馬觀花很快就會走完，這種地方真的需要提前做好準備，才能發現樂趣，否則就變成到此一游。

扼守在海邊的一座城堡建築，這個獨特的城堡看着很高冷的，都是沒有窗戶的獨特的建築，城堡也是蠻高大的，巨大的礁石也是分佈在很多的地方呢，這個城堡的價值也是很好的。

Standing on the beach of Marseilles, you can see a gray island surrounded by rocks like axes and knives. On the rocks, there stands a castle with three towers. This is the ancient castle of Eve, which has been baptized by many wars and written miraculously by Alexander Dumas in the "Count of Monte Cristo". From the harbor you can take a yacht to the island. The island, less than 200 meters long and less than 168 meters wide, consists entirely of limestone. The path to the platform on the island is a deep "Nine-Curve Corridor" surrounded by a large and thick wall. Every step is blocked by high walls and gates. It needs to turn right. The path is tortuous, like walking in a deep valley. At the end of the stone steps is a platform of about two or three acres, which is the strict Everglade. To enter the fort, we need to pass through an ancient wooden bridge which is very similar to the ancient Chinese city pool suspension bridge. The castle is made of lime sand and stone, with round forts on both sides and square in the middle. The center is a small patio, surrounded by high walls, with only a square sky. There are stone steps connected around them. On the walls on both sides of the stone steps, there are hollow windows and iron doors with iron fences. That is the prison cell for prisoners. Down, through the dark, narrow corridor, not far from each other are two dungeons with large iron gates. The dungeons are gloomy and cold. There was only one small window on one wall with a finger-thick iron fence on it. Only a big blue sky could be seen through the small window. One of them has a hole in the wall one foot above the ground that can be drilled into a person. It is said that the prisoners did try to escape by digging a hole here, but unfortunately, the walls of the fort were high and thick, and the sea outside the fort was surging, so the prisoners who were locked in were indeed unable to fly. These two cells are the dungeons of Dumas who imprisoned the Faria elder and Duntis. The book "Count of Monte Cristo" has captured readers all over the world and made Everburg unintentionally famous. Everyone who comes to the castle and sees the dungeon admires the author's spirit of digging materials, extraordinary imagination and excellent expressive ability.

The origin of Count Monte Cristo's novel, Everburg, Stone Prison, once in a while, still feel warm in winter and cool in summer. It will be crazy to stay for ten years. Standing at the highest point of Marseilles, the Cathedral of Notre Dame Garde overlooks the whole of Marseilles and the old port. The island in the middle is the famous Fort Eve.

Eve Island is an independent island about 2 kilometers from Marseilles. Eve Castle on the island is a prison for political prisoners and pagans in the past. The Earl of Monte Cristo of Dumas made him famous, which is described here as a prototype. The storm is very strong on the island, especially in spring and summer. The round-trip ships will be cancelled at any time, so we must check the weather in advance and reserve them.

這座海上的古老城堡歷經數年依舊很吸引人，進入一看空間挺大，佩服設計師的想象力。
