William the Conqueror Chateau Guillaume Le Conquerant our visit to this medieval castle in the town of Falaise in the Calvados region Normandy.
The Chateau Guillaume Le Conquerant is easy to find just follow the signs or the castle walls. The entrance is in the square with the statue of William on a horse.
The Chateau is being restored the work as been ongoing for many years. At the time of our visit in June most of the work was on the walls. The castle entrance fee when we were there was 7 euros which was good value and you could park for free.
You entered through a book and gift shop where you are given a set of headphones in your language. The headphones picked up the music and narratives as you walked round the rooms in the fortress.It was an interesting visit you could wander round at your own pace. The views from the top of the keep over the town were worth the climb.
Finally, many aspects of daily life will be recreated inside the Great Keep. The main aspects will concern the public use of the Aula : dealing out justice, receiving counsel or gathering important local figures. The furniture used (chests, bed, seats, throne) will be especially crafted and installed on location.
