Perched on a hill overlooking the Orge valley, the keep of Montlhéry is what remains of a fortress built at the end of the 10th century by the local lords. The site witnessed major medieval conflicts, from the English siege to the Battle of Montlhéry in 1465, before being largely demolished on royal order at the end of the 16th century. Today only the keep and a few remnants of the curtain walls survive, restored in the 19th century by the architect Henri Labrouste.
