Tips
This is the home of St. Francis Xavier, one of the earliest companions of St. Ignatius of Loyola. The two had met as students in a home at the Sorbonne in Paris.
The guided tour with an audio guide gives a really good impression of the life of his family and his work as a Jesuit in India, Japan and China.
Next to the castle there is a large educational and retreat center of the Jesuits.Centro d'espitiualtad:
