Privately-owned Château de Clisson, listed as a historic monument in 1924, features numerous examples of defensive architecture
Built by the powerful De Clisson family from the 12th century onwards, the château later became the property of the Dukes of Brittany. Neglected by its owners from the second half of the 17th century, it was burnt down in 1793. In 1807, the sculptor Frédéric Lemot bought the monument and incorporated it into his Garenne park, then under development. The site was listed as a historic monument in 1924. The site still boasts numerous examples of defensive architecture, including archères, cannonières and assommoirs. We highly recommend a guided tour.

La partie la plus visible et sympa pour ma part est la partie primitive. L’extension qui a été édifiée par Le duc François II de Bretagne avec l'adjonction d'une seconde enceinte munie de nombreuses tours défensives couvrant la partie ouest, plus exposée est, pour ma part moins impressionnante.
Tarif visite libre très raisonnable. Visite à faire absolument si vous êtes à Clisson
