Château d'Authie

Highlight • Castle

It is in the small village of Conchil-le-Temple that the castle of Pas d'Authie is erected. Towards the middle of the 19th century, Baron de Torcy Félix Moulart had a castle built on the site of a 17th century farm. The park also extends over the old farmyard, of which the pond and the dovecote have survived. Today listed as a Historic Monument, this beautiful residence has preserved a certain charm. Its gardens are open to visitors in high season.

Citadel of Montreuil

Highlight • Castle

The Citadel of Montreuil is a 16th century pre-Vauban royal citadel located in Montreuil in the Pas-de-Calais department. It is built on the foundations of a medieval royal castle and classified as a historic monument in 1926.
The citadel is the defensive redoubt of the town of Montreuil (Pas-de-Calais). It is a spur on the left bank of the Canche valley, the former border of the counties of Ponthieu and Boulonnais. The fortified site placed under its protection the port infrastructures of the city of Montreuil, which have now disappeared.
