Recommended by 7 hikers
The castle of Nogent-le-Roi dates from the 15th century and was built by Pierre de Brézé, a close adviser to King Charles VII1. You can admire the neo-Louis XIII style of the current building, built in 1863 by Alfred Chapelain, and discover the remains of the medieval fortress, such as the surrounding wall and the two square towers. You can also enjoy the magnificent park that surrounds the castle, where there is an old windmill that was used to pump water during the Second Empire. The park is open to the public every day from 8 a.m. to 8 p.m. and hosts various exhibitions and events throughout the year. The Château de Nogent-le-Roi is an ideal destination for a relaxing and cultural hike.
