Citadel of Besançon Highlights: Must-See Features and Attractions
Some information may have been translated by Google Translate
The castle of Besançon is located in the south of the city of Besançon. This castle occupies a dangerous terrain and is mainly composed of two fortresses. They are located at the diversion of the Du River, and they are watching this strategic place all year round. Besançon Castle was built in 1668, and was renovated and completed by Vauban, a famous French military engineer from 1688 to 1711. After that, it was once decorated with splendor and became the barracks and military academy of Louis XIV. Although the Besançon castle has been converted into a zoo and aquarium today, the historical relics are still everywhere.

Besanson Castle is still worth visiting, the castle is very historical, but it still looks very solid now, I like the feeling of walking on the castle, overlooking the surrounding scenery, it feels great.
A place to play for a day is actually a place to garrison. The wonder works of Vauban, the great French architect during Louis XIV, were so high that he wondered how he built such a big castle with stones. The construction is very good and worth seeing and learning about the domestic monuments.
Besanson Castle is very distinctive, composed of two castles is spectacular, with a river crossing in the middle. Come to this ancient castle to visit around, find the castle has many gates and thrilling passages, is a place to escape during war.
The castle is built in a dangerous place, but the scenery is great.
The castle is really beautiful and artistic
