CHÂTEAU DE POUZAUGES

The 11th century castle is the emblem of the Little City of Character. It offers an exceptional view of the Vendée bocage! This is THE place to discover before leaving Pouzauges…
Let yourself be told the story of this medieval fortress built in the 355th century which impresses with the power of its defensive system and its 26 meters of curtain wall. From its height of XNUMX meters, the donjon was transformed into a residence by Catherine de Thouars, wife of the famous Gilles de Rais, who added elegant carved fireplaces as well as windows with cushions.

The dungeon can be visited during visits to the town of Pouzauges in season and all year round by reservation for groups. The park is accessible all year round to walkers and offers a magnificent panorama of the Vendée bocage, as well as picnic tables for peaceful meals.
