Simply a great idea that is being put into practice here. Come by before the construction work is finished. In addition to the normal day-to-day construction work, there are also always interesting special offers. The bread baked here is pretty tasty and is sold.

An unmissable experience is visiting this castle, the construction of which began in 1999 using medieval techniques. You visit a construction site (now well advanced), chat with the workers from the different trades who explain everything to you, visit the vegetable garden, the basket maker, the baker, the potter, the herbalist, etc… I highly recommend visiting this castle !

A true medieval fortress built on 11th century foundations, completed in the 13th century, then partly transformed during the Renaissance. The four corner towers, the two entrance towers defending the drawbridge, the moat and the dovecote surround the charming square interior courtyard. Since 1951, the pottery workshop, exhibitions, shows and courses have made Ratilly a leading art center.

The project is a sensation and has now also gained respect from experts due to its scientific approach. Almost all of the materials used come from the land on which the castle is being built. Tools and techniques from the 13th century are used in the construction. The corresponding workshops are located around the castle. For example, the smithy, the dyeing works, the quarry with stonemason's hut, etc. Horses for the carriages are kept in reconstructed stables. Fences, stairs and bridges were built largely without modern materials. At the various workshops there are display boards with the tools used there. Most of the time people are working there and you can ask questions. Demonstrations are held from time to time. For example, you can watch how a rope is made or how a wooden shingle is made. Outside of school holidays, the site is visited by many school classes. But don't worry, the site is large and the crowds are well distributed. In addition, school groups are taught about the techniques used at the time in the many shelters scattered around. This means you can always find a place where you can look around almost alone. Depending on the season, one to three restaurants are open on the site. There is also plenty of space to eat there, or to eat the snacks you brought with you. There is also a large, sheltered picnic area by the car park. You can leave the site at any time if you get a stamp at the exit. In the afternoon, you reach the water mill, which was also built according to the model of the time, via a forest path about 500 metres long. The castle should be finished in 2023. Construction was still underway in June 2023, but there is already a lot to see. The chapel with murals and stained glass windows, the kitchen with bakery, the large hall, the gentlemen's room in the keep, etc. A visit is highly recommended. The €15 per person (as of 2023) is definitely worth it. Also because you can easily spend a whole day here.

The well-preserved ensemble from the second half of the 13th century is a four-wing structure around an almost square inner courtyard, which is surrounded at the corners by four mighty round towers and is accessed on the south side via a portal flanked by similar towers. The buildings are surrounded all around by a now dry moat. Despite a variety of later structural measures, especially the post-medieval changes to the southern defensive buildings into homely refuges with open window fronts in the style of a castle, they have hardly lost any of the former fortified character of a castle complex. The historic castle is now a cultural center, a place where numerous concerts take place every summer and contemporary artists exhibit. In 2015 the facility had over 12,200 visitors. https://de.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schloss_Ratilly
