    Pierrefonds Castle has many stories to tell. It was built towards the end of the 14th century by the Duke of Orléans. Dismantled in the 17th century and left in ruins for years, it was rebuilt on the orders of Napoleon III. The result is a castle with a medieval and defensive appearance.

      A powerful castle complex that has often served as a film set. It towers above the small town by far, but you should rest here and enjoy the atmosphere at the lake, e.g. with an ice cream. A lot of tourism, therefore, one should estimate the time of day well. There is a postcard view on the opposite side of the lake.
