    Imposing citadel that has been fought over the centuries.

    The Arsenal: This 16th-century building was originally a fortified enclosure used to store weapons and ammunition and to house the garrison.
    , Today, some rooms are gone, others are still to visit (bread oven, room "pillar"). Today, the Powder Magazine houses the Museum of Drawing and Prints and the Cultural Center, built in the middle of this French-style property surrounded by gardens. On the one hand it houses the music academy. On the other hand, many rooms for events of all kinds (exhibitions, concerts, weddings, banquets, etc.).
