概要
クイックファクト: この要塞は、巨大な石壁と堂々たる塔でスカイラインを支配し、城壁からのパノラマビューを提供します。戦略的な軍事拠点として、また中世の強力な伯爵たちの住居として機能していました。
見どころ: 囚人たちがかつて運命を待っていた地下牢に足を踏み入れ、石の回廊に響く歴史のこだまを想像してみてください。狭い螺旋階段を展望塔まで登り、旧市街の屋根と眼下を流れる川の息をのむような景色を眺めましょう。
インサイダーヒント
- Wear comfortable shoes as cobblestone paths and stairs can be uneven and slippery.
- Bring a camera for excellent photo ops from the top of the towers, especially at sunset.
- Avoid weekends if you prefer a quieter visit, as it gets busier then.
- Skip the audio guide if short on time; informational signs are well placed throughout.
