Very beautiful castle. The outside area is very interesting and a nice walk. Unfortunately I didn't see the inside of the castle. The bicycle parking area is behind the archway on the inside on the right.

The Joué-du-Bois manor was built at the end of the 15th century and surrounded by a moat and towers. Damaged during the Wars of Religion and the Second World War, it was restored and preserved as a historical monument. You can admire the architecture and gardens of the manor, as well as the surrounding village and countryside. The mansion is not open to the public, but you can still enjoy its exterior view from a distance.

Saint Roch (Saint-ROCH), to whom this chapel is dedicated as patron, was born in Montpellier, France, in the middle of the 14th century. He is popularly considered – along with Saint Sebastian – to be the “plague saint”. What is characteristic of the depiction of Rochus in paintings and as statues is that he usually points to a plague boil on his leg; A dog can often be seen at his feet, because according to legend, when he was caring for plague patients, he himself fell ill with it and retreated into solitude, providing him with bread every day. Saint-ROCH's memorial day in the calendar of saints is August 16th.

The castle is one of the largest in Normandy. It has been a listed building since 1927. From the free car park, a gravel path leads first to a gatehouse, then to the square castle, which is as defensive as it is representative and stands next to the small castle garden and a pasture. Beyond the castle stretches the beech and oak forest of the Forêt d’Ecouves, which is part of the Normandy-Maine Regional Nature Park. Inside, the Château de Carrouges invites you to travel through three centuries. The dining room with its marble fireplace and the bishops’ room with its wood-paneled prayer chamber are particularly beautiful.

A very beautiful castle in a historic city.

Carrouges Castle was built at the end of the 14th century to serve as a stately residence. Over the centuries, the castle has been remodeled and is now managed by the National Monuments Center which restored it. It is possible to visit the castle and its park on a self-guided tour or guided tour.

On the occasion of the veloscenie, I finished my first day here. You should know that Carrouges is a town located at an altitude of 320 meters, on the northern slope of the signal d'Écouves, the highest peak in Normandy (417 meters). In other words, Carrouges, it must be earned.

Carrouges was first in the 14th century a stronghold of the Hundred Years War (dungeon). It became a stately home in the 15th century (Blosset wing), augmented in the 16th century by an entrance gatehouse considered to be the first witness of Renaissance architecture in Normandy.
