Castle built around 950 by Onfroi whose keep was replaced by a high crenellated tower in Avranches.

The château was built around 950 by Onfroi Le Dane on the remains of the ancient Roman walls. Since then, a succession of enclosures and moats have been added. Sadly lost at the end of the 19th century, the keep was replaced by a high crenellated tower, a skilful transformation of a 13th-century curtain wall. Staircases provide access to the very top and a superb view of the sous-préfecture. It's definitely a place not to be missed, and not too time-consuming to visit.

Château surplombant la ville, très bien entretenu et aménagé (bancs et petit parc à disposition où vous pourrez y lire, pique niquer), facile d'accès et offrant une vue (lointaine tout de même) sur le Mont Saint Michel.
