From the castle of Bourbon, there remain today the three towers of the northern front and the home, saved from the destruction by Achille Allier and Victor Hugo, as well as the famous tower Qui Qu'en Grogne (14th century MH), two towers of the enclosure, a part of the curtains and the fortified mill, as well as foundations and many elevations.
Your guide will share with you the history of the Bourbon family, describe the remains and buildings that have disappeared, including the Palatine Chapels, and share with you the mysteries of the castle. It will take you to visit the house and the towers of the northern front, where you will discover the architectural and decorative features of these superb remains of the 12th, 13th and 14th centuries. The tour ends at the top of the towers, where the panorama offers stunning views of the city and the surrounding countryside.
A careful observation will reveal to the curious observer surprising decorations and architectural peculiarities.

À propos du lieu

Château de Bourbon
Rue de la Sainte-Chapelle 03160 Bourbon-l'Archambault
  • Allier
  • Auvergne-Rhône-Alpes
Bourbon-l'Archambault: historic heart of Bourbonnais! Built on the rock that dominates the city, the castle of Bourbon offers striking remains whose splendor and style are representative of the royal architecture of the late thirteenth century. The first castle of the Sires of Bourbon then became the symbol of their power. Still considered today as the family home of all the Bourbons, he saw the birth of the youngest Capetian dynasty. Three sites and several tours offer you, solo, with family or friends, to explore a page of the History of France and to discover an emblematic site of Bourbonnais. Listed as a Historical Monument since 1862
