Castle at Falaise, which is best known for being the birthplace of William the Conqueror

William the Conqueror Castle is a medieval castle where William the Conqueror was born. It offers breathtaking views of the city and the surrounding valleys. You can discover the three towers and the walls of the castle, as well as the chapel dedicated to Saint-Nicolas. You can also enjoy a multimedia tour that recreates the lives and times of Norman dukes and kings. The castle is open every day from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. The entrance price is 8 euros for adults and 4 euros for children.

Château Ganne is an old castle from the 11th century. Its remains are a delight for walkers. There is something so much more accessible to getting a sense of a place than when visiting some much grander intact castles. You can run your fingers over the walls, walk among the ruins, and explore.

The house was built around 1750. At that time, a beautiful English park with gardens was created. It no longer exists today, but the green space that one crosses to access the house is still a peaceful part of nature to enjoy.

An absolute must to visit here

Ruins of the old castle in a green setting. Situations of the different parts of the castle by small wrought iron figures. Explanations by signs and smartphone. Free entry. Nice tour of the owner to do on foot or by bike.

Built in the last years of the reign of Louis XIII, the Château de Rabodanges is well representative of its time, with its architecture almost completely devoid of ornamentation, but offering a very successful subtle play between horizontal lines and vertical lines. This beautiful 17th century residence, which was the seat of a marquisate, harmonizes with its park which recalls the achievements of Le Nôtre. Located at the top of a promontory, it dominates the entire Orne valley, in the heart of Suisse Normande. Source: http://www.office-tourisme-putanges.com
