Poetically nicknamed "la Vigie des marais", Colombières Castle is a listed historical monument, flanked by massive towers and surrounded by a water moat. It is a privileged witness of 1000 years of Norman history of William the Conqueror in the Second World War where it became in June 1944 the first center of the psychological war.
For this 37th edition of the European Heritage Days on the theme "Heritage and education", let yourself be enchanted by the unique beauty of this place inhabited and maintained by the same family for 300 years. You will discover the restoration work done in 2020 on the wall of the moat taking into account the lessons of the past.
