MONTAFILAN CASTLE

The remains of this castle of the 2nd and th centuries lie km west of the village on a steep hill marked by two valleys as deep as marshy, where flows the streams of Rault and the Moulin in Vaux. It was built with Pierres stones by Rolland I, renamed Count of Montafilan-Dinan, and his last owner was no other than Françoise de Dinan, assessment of Anne of Brittany. This place of 6 towers, of which there are only 3, has in the centre a particularly deep sink, which is the entrance of an underground connected to the farm in the Gully. The castle would have sheltered 2 chapels. Around 1790, Abbot Lesage of Courseul hid in the towers to avoid being captured by revolutionaries. If the visit of the ramparts is free, it is still a private property. So be discreet and even cautious: attention to rock falls…
