O
Rýchle fakty: Vonkajšia stena paláca sa tiahne v dĺžke 3 kilometrov a je obklopená 52 strážnymi vežami. Obnova paláca v 19. storočí prebiehala pod vedením architekta Viollet-le-Duca, ktorý sa podieľal aj na redesignoch Sochy slobody.
Zaujímavosti: Vo vnútri hrubých kamenných múrov si môžete priložiť ucho k stene a počuť hukot vody prúdiacej v priekope z 13. storočia. Palác nebol nikdy v histórii dobytý počas obliehania vďaka svojmu geniálnemu obrannému dizajnu, ktorý nútil útočníka blúdiť v bludisku úzkych nádvorí.
Insiderské tipy
- Bring a wide-angle camera to photograph the intersecting stone arches in the great hall.
- Climb the wall of the southwestern tower at sunset for the best view of the orange rooftops.
- Take some time in the inner courtyard where there is a 13th-century well whose water is still drinkable.
- Avoid buying tickets at noon (12-2 PM) when the crowds are at their peak.
