Beautiful castle both inside and outside, gardens very well maintained without forgetting the ramparts accessible to take beautiful photos. Panoramic view of the city of Angers and the river.

La forteresse est très impressionnante de par sa taille et sa position dans la ville. les différentes parties visitables permettent de mieux comprendre les aménagements et les modifications en fonction des périodes du Moyen Age. Les tapisseries de l’apocalypse ne sont à manquer sous aucun prétexte.

Le château a subi plusieurs transformations depuis le moyen-âge. Visite intéressante, particulièrement le tour complet du chemin de ronde et ses jardins suspendus. Puis, découverte EXTRAORDINAIRE de la tapisserie de l'Apocalypse. 80 mètres de long, sur deux niveaux! Cette réalisation a 800 ans d'Age et mérite à elle-seule le voyage. Nous y sommes restés une heure entière. Ne manquez pas de prendre l'audio-guide ( 3.5€) pour profiter pleinement de ce bel endroit.

A true emblem of the city! Not miss the visit of the castle with the famous tapestries of the Apocalypse, the view on Angers from the ramparts… and in front of the castle the promenade of the end of the world to enjoy the views on Maine…

Magnifique château en plein Angers. Un lieu incontournable à découvrir si vous venez dans cette jolie ville. Les jardins sont parfaits et l'intérieur est à visiter.
