Castle ruins overlooking the Seine, offering a view of the river, medieval games, and re-enacted camps.
Overlooking the Seine, the ruins of Château-Gaillard bear witness to the past of one of the region's most famous fortresses, and offer a unique view of the Seine, Petit-Andely and the cliffs in the distance. Classified as a historic monument since 1862 and listed as a major national site, Château-Gaillard has inspired painters, poets and other contemporary artists. In August, medieval games and re-enacted camps are held there at weekends, as well as workshops for children. Take advantage of the group ticket with the Nicolas Poussin Museum.

Nous n avons pas pu visiter l intérieur mais déjà cette petite ballade est dépaysante vu le cadre qui l entourent ...
Belle découverte...
Belle vue
Démantelé sous Louis XIII, l'édifice offre toujours au visiteur la masse imposante de ses remparts dominant la Seine dans la boucle des Andelys. Le fort donjon et ses courtines festonnees (aux formes courbes pour rejeter les boulets de trébuchets) reste juché sur son rocher pour rappeler la puissance de la Normandie.
