    Château de Robillard (National History Museum)

    MahebourgMauritius1772

    Château de Robillard, located on the outskirts of historical Mahebourg, is a grand 18th-century French colonial manor house that now houses the National History Museum of Mauritius. Built in 1772 by Jean de Robillard, this historic residence played a legendary role during the Battle of Grand Port in August 1810—the only naval victory achieved by Napoleon's navy over the British Royal Navy. During the fierce four-day battle, the château served as an emergency makeshift field hospital where commanders from both opposing forces were treated side-by-side in the main hall. Today, visitors and museum staff report eerie encounters with phantom naval officers, disembodied groans of wounded sailors, and ghostly footsteps echoing through the historic naval gallery.

    Eureka House

    MokaMauritius1830

    Eureka House, known locally as 'Maison Eureka' or 'La Maison des 109 Portes' (The House of 109 Doors), is a grand 19th-century Creole colonial mansion situated along the Moka River in central Mauritius. Built in 1830 and famously acquired by the prominent Le Clézio family in 1856, this sprawling timber residence features an astonishing 109 doors and wraps around a lush tropical garden facing the Ory waterfalls. Renowned as one of the largest wooden houses in the Indian Ocean, Eureka is equally famous for its eerie supernatural legacy. Guests and caretakers frequently experience disembodied piano music, self-opening doors, cold drafts in windowless corridors, and sightings of 19th-century specters wandering its endless verandas.

    Martello Tower at La Preneuse

    La PreneuseMauritius1831–1834

    The Martello Tower at La Preneuse is a historic 19th-century British coastal defensive fort located directly on La Preneuse public beach in the Black River district of western Mauritius. Built by the British Royal Engineers between 1831 and 1834, it is one of five original Martello towers constructed on the island—and one of only three surviving today. Fully restored in the 1990s as a museum, the thick stone tower features a swivel cannon mounted on its roof, a copper-lined gunpowder magazine, and underground water cisterns. The tower is renowned among locals and museum volunteers for strange nocturnal occurrences, including phantom gunner sightings, disembodied boots marching on stone stairs, and unexplained brass cannon movements.
