# Château de Montfort-sur-Risle

Montfort-sur-Risle, Eure, Normandie

Château de Montfort-sur-Risle stands in Montfort-sur-Risle (Eure), in the Normandie region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 11th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Perched on a rocky spur above the Risle valley, the remains of this 11th-century stronghold recall one of Normandy's great feudal families, the Montforts, one of whom joined William the Conqueror at Hastings. The site, covering several hectares, still bears the marks of a siege led by King Henry I in 1122 and of a deliberate demolition by English forces in the early 13th century. Visitors come for the ruin itself, restored by volunteer teams, and for the view over the town and river below.

**Practical details not verified yet.** We know this château and where it is, but we have not yet checked its opening hours or prices at the source. We would rather tell you than display something we are unsure of.
