HAUTE-GUERCHE CASTLE
This romantic place offers a peaceful atmosphere and is a source of inspiration for artists
A guerche is a fortified place on the edge of a fault. In a preserved setting, the vestiges on their promontory offer themselves to visitors. Enlarged and strengthened during the Hundred Years' War, the castle has experienced many setbacks: besieged during the Wars of Religion, burned during the Wars of the Vendée, it then became a stone quarry. Despite its tormented past, a peaceful atmosphere emanates from this place of romantic charm, a source of inspiration for artists.
