Château de Vicques

En un regard

Le château en bref

Château de Vicques (Calvados), Avenue du Château, dates from the second half of the 16th century and the first half of the 17th century. It replaces a 12th-century fortress. Built of Caen stone and limestone, it retains a bartizan and fragments of machicolations. The Baroque chapel houses polychrome statues from the 15th and 16th centuries. The dovecote dates from the late 16th century, and the outbuildings from 1744. Restored in the 19th century, it is registered as a monument historique, together with its chapel, its dovecote, and the façades and roofs of the outbuildings.
