Of the 152 castles we list in Orne, these 59 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 59 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Middle Ages, spread across 56 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Château de Domfront (Domfront Castle) (open to visitors), Manoir de Courboyer (a listed historic monument), Château de Gacé (Gacé Castle) (on the historic monuments register), Ancien manoir de la Chaslerie (26 reviews) and Manoir de la Saucerie (a listed historic monument).

9 of them receive visitors, according to their official website or their business listing. We have checked the opening hours of 9 and the prices of 4 of them, and each entry shows the date of that check. 11 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Middle Ages, with 59 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
