The castle of Pirou is known to be one of the oldest Norman castles

Known to be one of the oldest castles in Normandy, the castle of Pirou is a fortress built in the 12th century on the site of a Viking site. Registered in the inventory of Historic Monuments since 1968, it has high ramparts, a bakery, a wine press, a moat and a covered way: a place that takes the visitor back to the time of the Hundred Years' War. Many times besieged and restored in the 15th, 17th and 18th centuries, it houses the Pirou tapestry, made in the 20th century. A very beautiful place, magnificently restored.

Petit château fort bien restaurée. Visite libre plutôt rapide car il n’y avait pas de guide ce jour là. (Juste un guide externe au château mais nous n’avions pas le temps pour faire la visite)

un site féodal assez impressionnant pour son architecture complètement ceinturé par des douves circulaires magnifiques ! Cette structure a traversé le temps d’une façon incroyable ! Serge à l’entrée diffuse à l’envie toutes les explications nécessaire à assouvir la curiosité du passant. Dire qu’à beau bourg on est obligé de fermer le site 5 ans pour son entretien, ça en dit long sur l’intérêt historique que porte les concepteur à leur vilaine réalisation. Pirou porte haut la technique architecturale ! Bravo !

Petit château sympa, peu de choses à voir a l'intérieur mais les extérieurs sont agréables.
