Om
Hurtige fakta: Fire århundreder med middelalderlige grever regerede fra denne klippefremspring, indtil gæld og kaos tvang den sidste til at opgive landområdet i midten af 1500-tallet. Mere end 250.000 besøgende klatrer nu op ad de spiraltrapper hvert år, en af de største tilstrømninger for nogen fæstning i landet.
Højdepunkter: I den store sal dækkede 1800-tallets restaurering hver væg med håndmalet kunstigt marmor, vinranker og jagtscener, et overdådigt trick, der stadig narrer øjet helt tæt på. Klatre derefter op til det østlige tårn, hvor det stejle fald åbner sig ud over røde tage langt nede, mens den hvide pyramide Moléson tårner sig op lige på den anden side af dalen.
Insidertips
- Arrive at the 10 a.m. opening so the spiral staircases and tower tops stay empty.
- Wear flat, grippy shoes; centuries of footsteps have polished the steep stone steps until they're slippery.
- Skip the crowded main-square angle and loop to the far rampart for the cleanest view straight down the valley.
- Give yourself 20 extra minutes after the main rooms to circle back for photos, the painted halls look different once crowds thin out.
