Tips

Katie-Jane L'Herpiniere

October 31, 2021

This is a spectacular fort standing high on a rocky spur. Worth a short detour for a visit if you are into your history. Initially built in wood in the 11th century, it was then rebuilt in stone in the 12th century. It has been a medieval castle, a border fortress, a state prison and then an artillery fort.
