This castle, classified as a historical monument in 1994, is a rare example of preserved medieval architecture

It is said that Charlemagne came to hunt in the castle's lush forests. Its current form was built in 1338 by Geoffroy de Nancy. A rare example of preserved medieval architecture, it was listed as a Historic Monument in 1994. Its white, stocky mass, with its imposing, proud 22 m crenellated keep-porch, is reflected in its 30 m wide moat. Since 1989, an association has been working to restore and safeguard the site, organizing volunteer workcamps, conferences, guided tours and numerous events from spring onwards.

À 2 pas de Vaucouleurs un petit chemin vous accompagne au château de Gombervaux. Construit au XIVeme est bien abîmé par le temps et tous les mauvais événements qui ont pratiquement détruit cette construction moyenâgeuse. Épaulée par une grande ferme ainsi que les champs qui l’entourent vous ne serait pas insensible à ces vieilles pierres qui appellent au secours. C’est pourquoi une association œuvre à sa consolidation et remise en état. Bravo. Notre proche histoire rappelle que les champs ont servi à un terrain d’aviation pour des pilotes de chasse émérites.
