November 25, 2023, Château de Bricquebec

Located in the town of Bricquebec, this superb castle was built between the 10th and 11th centuries. The exterior of the remains of the castle are freely accessible and are worth the detour!

The ruins of the medieval castle of Bricquebec are still very well preserved with in particular a magnificent polygonal keep with eleven sides unique in Europe.

A 'Voie Verte' can be translated to green way, and are French signposted paths open for non-motor traffic, including walkers and runners, cyclists, and roller skaters. You usually find them along river or canal towpaths or disused railway lines, which means that they're typically pretty flat too! The combination of easy riding and no traffic make these a great choice for touring cyclists of all ages.

https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Bricquebec Le château de Bricquebec se présente sous la forme d'une enceinte flanquée de tours rondes, hexagonales et quadrangulaires que domine un donjon polygonal à onze côtés unique en Europe[réf. nécessaire]. Le château a été entièrement reconstruit au XIVe siècle et remanié au XVIe siècle. Il offre « l'exemple le plus intéressant et le plus imposant d'architecture militaire du Moyen Âge en Cotentin. Le donjon Le donjon est construit sur une motte de terre de 17 m de hauteur et de 50 m de diamètre, et a la forme d'un polygone à 11 côtés, divisé en cinq niveaux. Haut de 22,30 mètres avec un diamètre de 10 mètres, sa base présente un fruit. Il semble qu'il ait été construit là pour assurer la défense de la porte d'entrée. Il se compose d'un caveau, d'un rez-de-chaussée faisant office de cuisine, et de deux étages servant d'appartements, d'un troisième étage réservé à la garde, le tout surmonté d'une plate-forme couronnée de mâchicoulis et percé de 27 ouvertures destinées au tir plongeant. Le sommet était, à l'origine, surmonté d'un toit pointu, aujourd'hui disparu4. La maison manable Flanquée d'une tourelle à un angle, elle communiquait avec le logis principal et le bastion. C'est aujourd'hui une ruine. Le bastion Il mesure 19,45 mètres de longueur sur une largeur de 4,63 mètre. Il est construit en saillie sur le mur d'enceinte. Il est percé de meurtrières et surmonté d'un chemin de ronde. La grosse tour ronde Elle forme la limite est du mur d'enceinte. Elle est haute de deux étages et son diamètre extérieur est de 12,80 mètres. Elle a perdu son toit polygonal. Le chartrier C'est là qu'étaient conservées les archives du seigneur du lieu, essentiellement ses titres propriété. La tour d'horloge Elle est haute de trois étages, reliés entre eux par un escalier tournant ; chaque étage offrant une salle. Un musée y a aujourd'hui trouvé place. L'hôtel du vieux château, ancien logis seigneurial L'ancien logis seigneurial, converti en hôtel de tourisme, date du XIIIe siècle8. L'intérieur a subi une transformation totale4. La magnifique salle des chevaliers a été un temps transformée en écurie. Au devant se dresse une « salle » qu'ouvre de larges baies dont les remplages sont divisés par quatre colonnettes et sur son côté opposé d'une arcade.

Bricquebec: Beautiful old city center around a city palace, the oldest part of which dates back to the 9th century. The large tower of this fortification, the so-called donjon, stands mightily above the city, but can currently cannot be visited (as of 07/2019). Tip: Explore the city on a Monday, because then the city center is closed for one of the largest Monday markets in the department of Manche. At the market there are agricultural products from the region, trinkets and clothes at low prices.
