History and Architecture
Origins: The castle was built in the 11th century by the family of the Lords of Angles. It was enlarged and modified over the following centuries, particularly in the 14th and 15th centuries, to reflect developments in medieval architecture.
Structure: The fortress is made up of several remarkable elements:
The Ramparts: The castle is surrounded by imposing ramparts, some of which are still well preserved. These walls provided a strategic defense against invaders.
The Tower: A large main tower, or keep, stands on the site, offering panoramic views of the Anglin Valley and the surrounding area.
Residential Buildings: The buildings adjacent to the tower were used as stately apartments and for various domestic functions.
