Thank you Mathieu

Magnificent and impressive castle. Worth a visit, as is the village.

Very pretty castle

This gate, built in the middle of the 15th century, was the entrance to the castle and opened onto the suburbs of the city. It was crossed by a double drawbridge, which spanned a deep moat. The small gate was reserved for pedestrians, the larger one for vehicles and horses. The interior of the enclosure was gradually sold to individuals and residences were built there, so much so that in the 16th century the "new town", as it was called, was located within the castle enclosure. It was not until the 18th century that the moat was filled in. In the following century, the gate was reduced in height, by the removal of the 2nd floor and the machicolations.

You are here, at the highest point in the Cher department and the Centre-Val de Loire region. It rises to an altitude of 504 meters. The roads leading there are quiet and peaceful.

Near Saint-Priest-La-Marche, at a place called Beddes in Cher (18) at an altitude of 454 m, discover the source of the Indre river which crosses the department of the same name (36) passing through the towns of Sainte Sévère, La Châtre, Ardentes, Châteauroux (prefecture), Buzançais. It is a tributary of the Loire.

This hospital commandery of the order of Saint John of Jerusalem was built at the end of the 12th century (keep and chapel), then completed in the 15th century by a dwelling. It has been classified as a historic monument since 1963.
