This château was built between the 9th and 13th century


This château was built between the 9th and 13th century and was used for security in those troubled times more than for the fancy parties in the 15th century like many of the other château’s.

It now houses one of the the oldest and largest collection of medieval tapestries in the world, with the 14th century "Apocalypse Tapestry”. As a tribute to its fortitude, the castle has never been taken by any invading force in history.
