An imposing keep

All you can see is me! Who am I? The dungeon!

I'm also known as the tribute tower.

I'm astonishingly shaped, semi-circular on the outside, flat and rectangular on the inside.

I reach a height of 26 metres. I have 7 levels, but only 3 can be visited with a guide.

I was once the governor's command post and residence. I was equipped with comforts worthy of great palaces: fireplaces, latrines, water.

To reach my heart, you had to pass through low-vaulted, narrow corridors, a veritable labyrinth. I still have inner courtyards, drawbridges and even armored doors.

I'm a defense system unto myself!

I served as a state prison during the reign of Louis XIV, as well as a powder magazine.

I'm a majestic, imposing sight when viewed from the terrace or from the Place d'Armes.
