Normandy’s most visited castle, with animations, retracing 1,000 years of history, with ramparts featuring 15 towers and 3 keeps.

Erected on a rocky spur in the Xᵉ century and fortified by William the Conqueror and then by Henry I Beauclerc, his last son, Falaise Castle is an imposing sight, with its keeps and rampart flanked by fifteen towers. A strategic site from William the Conqueror's first feat of arms to Richard the Lionheart and John Lackland, it was occupied by the English during the Hundred Years' War. Guided tour available.

Première expérience sur une visite d'un château fort du Moyen Âge qui plus est en France. Visite très agréable et instructive, on replonge dans le Moyen Âge grâce aux visuels 3D avec les tablettes. Ce château est magnifique et j'ai hâte de pouvoir y revenir. Merci à vous.
