La Rochefoucauld Castle Bridge
Highlight • Castle
The history of the castle is inseparable from the history of the La Rochefoucauld family which, itself, is part of the political life of its time, century after century. The castle of La Rochefoucauld provides a remarkable illustration of the interweaving of politics and architecture through the life of a family which has continuously owned the castle since Fucaldus laid the first fortification around 980. With the history of the La Rochefoucauld family, the use of architecture for social and political purposes finds one of its most spectacular manifestations. This earned it the justified title of “pearl of Angoumois”.
The castle is an anthology of seven centuries of architecture and the home of the La Rochefoucauld family, still present for over a thousand years.
To see: the monumental Renaissance staircase (108 steps!), the boudoir of Marguerite de Valois, the kitchens dug into the karst, the state rooms, guards, the 18th century libraries, the main courtyard and its galleries from the 16th.

Comments
From Ruelle-sur-Touvre, the V92 went regularly up and down. Most of the route ran on a former railway line. Therefore, the slope was constant and actually quite pleasant.
