Welcome to the Middle Ages! And these walls last for a few centuries! Nothing to do with the planned obsolescence of skyscrapers!

Incredibly beautiful little place full of medieval charm. The (quite short) tour here is definitely worth it - try to use all the paths on the map - it's worth it. The castle is currently being renovated, but is simply impressive even from the outside.
