Couches Castle

Highlight • Castle

What medieval castle is located at the entrance to Couches, it is said to have been the prison where Marguerite de Bourgogne, queen of France and wife of Louis le Hutin, was imprisoned following the affair of the tower of Nesle in Paris around 1315.
The Castle is visitable and is really worth the detour for people interested in history.
