    The castle of the Dukes of Alençon is an old fortified castle, from the end of the 12th century. Its remains stand in the heart of the French commune of Alençon in the Orne department, in the Normandy region. During the Revolution, the remaining buildings of the castle were transformed into a prison, a function which it retained until 2010. The castle is classified as a historic monument.
