The imposing Medieval Castle in Vitré

The imposing Medieval Castle in Vitré
Il s'élève au cœur de la ville, construits aux alentours du 13° s. Imposant bâtiment aux nombreuses tours (un des châteaux avec le plus de tourelles pointues), de hauts murs et de remparts, il est accessible par un pont-levis entouré de douves.
Aujourd'hui il abrite un musée sur l’histoire de Vitré ainsi que l'hôtel de ville.

Additional views presented in PiP are very interesting. Now no one will already build such constructions. So, it's great that this historical memo is preserved.
Have a nice day, Christa!

Thanks Serge. You are right, it's (almost) impossible to build such buildings today. Those who have the money prefer huge and ugly skyscrapers climbing into the sky!! A good weekend to you.
