Château de La Roche-Guyon
Overlooking the village of La Roche-Guyon, built in a meander of the Seine on the border with Normandy, the castle belongs to the La Rochefoucauld family. Entirely rebuilt, enlarged and embellished in the 18th century, the castle, leaning against the cliff, is linked to the medieval keep which dominates it by an underground passage dug into the rock. Famous for its history, General Rommel had established his quarters there during the Second World War.
Its superb 3-hectare fruit garden, carefully restored according to the original 18th century plans, produces organic vegetables and fruit sold in the shop.
From the first troglodytic spaces to the experimental vegetable garden of the Enlightenment, from the ceremonial rooms to the casemates fitted out by Rommel, the castle offers its visitors a strange journey through time, just as Edgar P. Jacobs had imagined with the chronoscaphe of his famous "Devil's Trap" located precisely at La Roche-Guyon
