This small fortress town is perched on a Granite spur in the river Armançon. Guarding it are four massive pink granite Bastions forming the outer corners of the Keep
The main town entry gate (originally with portcullis)
The view from below outside one of the town walls
The adjoining walls between the four Bastions were demolished in 1589 to make way for house building etc…..
and this crack has been in this wall ever since! (the walls are up to 2.5 metres thick)
