DONJON
The building has been besieged and damaged, then restored several times.
The oldest monument in Clermont (11th century), it can only occasionally be visited from the inside. You can take the Promenade du Châtellier for a stroll near the keep to get a closer look. Rue du Donjon is another good place to get up close. This building has been besieged and damaged, then restored several times. It has served a variety of functions: military building, princely residence, women's prison. Louise Michel stayed here in 1883. Located high up, it can be seen from afar!
