THE CASTLE OF CAEN
A must-see visit to one of the largest fortified enclosures in Europe through the famous Caen Castle.
Thanks to this guided tour, you will discover differently and intelligently the famous castle of Caen built around 1060 by William the Conqueror, one of the largest fortified walls in Europe, with in particular the remains of the Duke's Palace and the keep, the completely renovated Saint-Georges church, the Porte des Champs and the Salle de l'Échiquier. Small icing on the cake, access to the keep and dungeons of Porte Saint-Pierre can only be done during this visit, they are closed to the public the rest of the time, a rare privilege! During the visit, the Hundred Years' War and the Revolution will also be mentioned, thanks to the exciting stories of the guide speaker. One of the essential visits when you're in town!
