Château D'If Fortress On The Island Of If, Frioul Archipelago, Bay Of Marseille, Mediterranean Sea, France

In fictional works
In the "Tales of Old Dartmoor" episode (recorded in 1956) of The Goon Show radio comedy series, Grytpype-Thynne arranges for Dartmoor Prison to put to sea to visit the Château d'If as part of a plan to find the treasure of the Count of Monte Cristo hidden there.
The fortress is brought up in Peter Mayle's "The Vintage Caper"; in relation to Reboul's vast love for Marseille and France.
The fortress was used as the location where Alain Charnier a.k.a. Frog One (Fernando Rey) meets Devereaux (Frédéric de Pasquale) to finalise the drugs shipment to the United States in the 1971 crime film The French Connection.
