Tips
this medieval castle is located at the entrance of Couches (meaning Chalon sur Saône / Autun) it would have been the prison where Marguerite of Burgundy, queen of France and wife of Louis le Hutin would have been imprisoned following the affair of the tower of Nesle in Paris around 1315.
the Château can be visited and is really worth a detour for those interested in history.translated by
