À propos du parcours

The evening visit includes entry to the interior of St Catherine’s Chapel. This offers more access than the view from the threshold on the regular chapels programme.

The passage to the Great Tower leads to the Chapel of the Holy Cross, including its presbytery. This small-group programme concentrates on the castle’s sacred spaces; the entries describe two of its most important interiors.

Pour les enfants

In the evening, visitors can enter St Catherine’s Chapel, which is only viewed from the doorway on the regular tour. A small group explores its interior up close.

The next part leads to the Chapel of the Holy Cross and its presbytery, the area by the altar. Access is more extensive than on the regular chapels tour.
