Lecture éditoriale
The record runs from the twelfth-century tower beside the collegiate church to the thirteenth-century episcopal palace, the fortress freed by Joan of Arc on 14 June 1429, and the eighteenth-century transformation: a cour d’honneur bordered by corner pavilions, façades re-cut in the classical style, towers stripped of their machicolations, a south-east wing and, in 1784, a neo-classical chapel with sculpture by Delaistre. The two park pavilions are contemporary with that chapel. The 2004 classification names the music pavilion and the billiard pavilion in full, the icehouse, and the ground running from the château to the place du Martroy.
Recommandation
The park pavilions of 1784 are the moment a bishop’s fortress became a garden house.
