Built around 1060 by William the Conqueror to house his residential palace, the ducal castle is one of Europe's vastest fortified enclosures. Serving, in turn, as a princely residence, a fortress and a military barracks, Caen castle is, today, a cultural crossroads. The recently restored north rampart, surmounted by a fine belvedere equipped with a lift, offers hitherto unexplored views of the town and the castle. The latest addition in 2008: access to recently discovered archaeological vestiges: 14th century house and forge, 16th century souterrain... (unveiled during work to extend the Normandy Museum).
