Château de Pierrefonds

Pierrefonds

Wander through a storybook fortress where 19th-century architect Viollet-le-Duc let his imagination run wild. The Château de Pierrefonds rises from the Compiègne forest with fairy-tale towers, 33 stone cats hiding in the rooflines, and a crocodile gargoyle keeping watch: a romantic fantasy that starred as Camelot in BBC's Merlin.
