MONSARAZ CASTLE
This castle is bounded by the Place d'Armes where there is a citadel and the Clock Tower.
Surrounded by its stone wall reinforced with towers, it is bounded by the Place d'Armes where there is a citadel and the Clock Tower. On the road to independence from the Spanish, João IV consolidated the fortress by building a new wall based on the model of the French architect Vauban, adapted to the artillery fire of the time. To see: the arenas of the castle where shows and bullfights used to take place and the round path which offers a sublime view over the valley and lakes of the region.

Depuis les remparts, magnifique point de vue sur la vallée et notamment le lac.
Ce chateau vaut bien un petit détours.
