Your experience

Royal residence between the 12th and 18th centuries, Charles V had a 50-meter dungeon built there, one of the highest in Europe, which later became a prison famous for having welcomed Fouquet, the Marquis de Sade and Mirabeau...

Make a fascinating leap in the history of the Vincennes Castle by walking along its beautiful enclosure, on its covered way or still near its medieval towers.

Nous avions visité la Sainte-Chapelle à Paris la veille et ce fut une excellente idée. Ces deux visites sont complémentaires et aident à mieux comprendre le contexte historique.
