What to expect
Built in the thirteenth century by Blanche de Castille, regent of France, to subdue the revolt of the dukes of Brittany and to repel the English invaders, the castle of Angers is distinguished from other French castles by its powerful fortifications. In fact, when it was built the castle was without equal in the world, except perhaps Crusader castles in the Holy Land built around the same time. Let yourself be carried back in time by the mass of stones and the castle's imposing towers that seem to have been decapitated at their summit. Behind this austere wall, once crossed by the drawbridge, lies the pleasant residence of the Dukes of Anjou, where you can enjoy the superb medieval garden with medicinal and dye plants and, of course, the castle's main attraction: Apocalypse, the largest hanging tapestry in the world which is more than 100 metres long.
