A formidable medieval fortress built in 1180, a testimony to medieval architecture in Beaucaire

Perched on its rocky spur, the Château de Beaucaire is a formidable medieval fortress that's a must-see. Overlooking the Rhône and the town, its remains underline the scale of the site and its defensive character. Built in 1180 by the Counts of Toulouse, it underwent a terrible siege during the Crusades against the Cathars. A self-guided tour takes in the Romanesque chapel, the parapet walk and the gardens, while a guided tour gives access to the keep.

Супер. Очень здорово провёл время. Фортификационное сооружение. Первые постройки ещё от римлян. Потом постройки средневековья. 11-13 века и 14 века. Вход на территорию комплекса бесплатный и свободный. Можно придти с детьми, им будет интересно. Можно погулять в саду, посидеть отдохнуть на скамеечках. Можно подняться на стены и представить себя средневековым воином глядя надменно на окружающим окрестности. На территории работает музей. Имеется туалет. В общем обязательно к посещению. Всем хорошего настроения.
