I went here with the international club at Ieseg (my school)... I didn't want to go but I didn't have anything else to do... plus a couple people (one of which didn't show up) seemed like they wanted me to come. I spent the majority of the day with Maria, a girl from Estonia. She's pretty nice and doesn't seem to be compelled to talk non-stop... so I felt pretty comfortable around her.
This castle was completely destroyed during the Revolution. Having said that, isn't it amazing that you can still see it? Somebody decided to rebuild the thing. And that is about all I remember about this castle. It was nice. I'm a little disappointed though, they had a kangaroo farm there and I didn't get to see it. I didn't realize it was there until it was too late. They also had a horse museum (or something of that sort) with real horses.
It was pretty neat as it had water surrounding the whole castle. It was built on a rock.
I think this is where the stables were.
The initials of the owner: Henri d'Orleans.
I just have to say that I love this picture... it is by far the coolest one I took at this place.
