Facts and practical information

The castle of Gruyères is a castle located in Gruyères, in the Ardennes department in France.

It is an estate that has evolved regularly over the centuries. The decree that ratified its registration in the inventory of historical monuments emphasizes "the way in which the castle illustrates the evolution of a residence through the centuries" while indicating the architectural quality of the whole. The four buildings that make up the edifice retain an overall coherence and elegance, thanks in particular to the use of yellow stone under the slate roof.
