To make a day of it
Château de Château-Thierry stands in Château-Thierry (Aisne), in the Hauts-de-France region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 13th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
Perched on the hill above Château-Thierry, the remains of the 13th century castle offer mainly a viewpoint over the town and the Marne valley. The keep was already destroyed by the 15th century, and what survives today is limited to the outer defensive works of the former stronghold. The site hosts seasonal events and a 3D visitor app recreating the fortifications, the early 15th century royal kitchen, and the underground passages closed to the public.
