Additional Information

Castle Lassay, a fifteenth-century fortress, is notable for its uniformity and outstanding preservation.

Boasting eight towers linked by a rampart, a unique three-storey defensive artillery boulevard, and drawbridges, it stands as a treasured example of the military architecture of the late Middle Ages. Its striking silhouette, mirrored in the pond below, was eternally captured by Victor Hugo.

During guided tours, you will learn about the operation of a fifteenth-century military garrison. The guide will reveal the furnished rooms, including bedrooms, an armory, a kitchen with its intriguing granite produce garden, and a fine assortment of brass… In a rare opportunity during each tour, visitors are encouraged to operate the drawbridge.

Located within the charming Small City of Character of Lassay-les-Châteaux, the castle is well worth a visit.

Diwan and Alexandre, the lords of the guided tour 🏰 - Very good visit in two parts. The premiere of the castle with Alexandre. The second of the tower with very difficult stairs with Diwan. Both guides are very available and answer questions perfectly. Well done to them ☺️👏 The price is 6 euros during heritage days. Both visits are worth it. Leave your stilettos at home 🏰😜
