Château des Ducs de Bourbon “La Mal-Coiffée”

A stone’s throw from the Anne-de-Beaujeu Museum, stands the keep built around 1400 by Louis II of Bourbon and the remains of the main building from the end of the 15th century commissioned by Peter II, Duke of Bourbon and his wife, Anne, daughter of the King of France, Louis XI. After experiencing the splendor of the ducal court, the keep was transformed into a prison in 1775. It remained in this use until 1983 and experienced the dark hours of the Second World War during which resistance fighters and collaborators succeeded one another in its dungeons. Within a renewed tour, come and discover “An ordinary day at the court of Anne-de-France”, an original digital creation allowing you to discover the daily life of the ducal court at the end of the Middle Ages.
