Bressuire Castle is a medieval ruin dating from the 10th century and having belonged to the Beaumont family. You can discover the 700 meter long enclosure and its 38 towers, admire the romantic remains of the 15th century dwelling and enjoy the view of the chapel and the old slaughterhouse from the esplanade. The castle also hosts temporary exhibitions, sculpture symposia and treasure hunts in summer.

Magnificent ruins of the fortified castle which can be seen from afar with its toothless silhouette. Its origin dates back to the 11th century, and it was one of the strongholds of Poitou.
Decorated with works of art and entertainment, the estate can be visited freely.
