This castle was the witness of the Hundred Years War and remains one of the rare medieval fortified buildings in Ile-de-France

We owe the origins of this fortress to Guy I of Montlhéry, who had a keep and a chapel built in the 11th century. The castle gradually grew until it became the imposing building of which we can contemplate the remains today. The building was the witness of the Hundred Years War and remains, thanks to its intact machicolations, one of the rare medieval fortified buildings of Ile-de-France. Its interior courtyard offers a superb panorama of the Chevreuse valley. The visitor can walk around, climb the ramparts and visit the cellars.

On peut s’en passer.
Plusieurs petits parkings à proximité. Parfait en basse saison, probablement compliqué en haute. Ruines pas spécialement intéressantes. Vue sur la vallée mais pas très belle, la photo omet intentionnellement le gros terrain de foot.

Une vue incroyable sur la vallée de la Chevreuse. Lorsque vous descendez dans la ville en contrebas, arrêtez vous chez l Alchimiste, le dernier siropier d'Ile de France.

Le château a le mérite d'être en altitude. Chemin qui monte à l'allure boisée avec ramparts, vue, vestiges du passé lointain et pourtant proche. Allez on se fait la ballade.

Les chiens sont interdits d’entrée. Un vigile y veille. Quand cette haine des chiens cessera-t-elle ? J’ai toujours des canisacs sur moi et - si c’est le problème - pourquoi ne pas mettre un distributeur ?

Il ne reste pas grand chose de ce château à part une tour et quelques morceaux de remparts. Néanmoins la vue sur la vallée de Chevreuse est magnifique, surtout au début du printemps lorsque les arbres et la nature sont en fleurs ????. Ce château constitue un passage à ne pas manquer si vous faites l’une des nombreuses randonnées dans la vallée de Chevreuse.
