Chateau de La Rochefoucauld

On the top of a cliff is the pearl of the castles of Poitou-Charentes: Rochefoucauld Castle. Also known as 'The Rock', the 1st impression you get is that it reminds you of clear and bright paint, where the meadow looks drawn and merges with the blue sky. From the 10th century the fort has changed shape and has been embellished by the day. The building, compact, is reminiscent of a cake. A Renaissance style that is shown on its outside and 4 towers, are one of its hallmarks. Inside, There are dependencies over 3 stories high. Great detail and with great views of the gardens. The part of the kitchen is to be admired.
