Visiting a medieval castle under construction is not trivial!
The concept is really interesting and we can discuss with the different craftsmen working on this titanic site!
During our visit, we also attended the spectacle of a very high quality alchemist.
The fact of being able to see the construction of a castle according to the techniques of the Middle Ages constitutes a rather exceptional and enriching experience.
The work done by the volunteers is incredible and we also learn about the trades of the time.
Beautiful we can go there every year
We will always make discoveries there
In terms of history and staging, I was amazed! I should have come 10 years before because the castle is unfortunately finished! But it's worth the detour! The 15 are well worth them.
Just in this time of covid several booths were empty, I would have hoped that they were replaced with other things temporarily.
But otherwise perfect!
It was a disappointing visit. The castle was beautiful and the crafts around it too. That was it. The park employees were not friendly and did not explain. They also answered questions briefly as if every question was too much. Many school groups were present. They received explanations more often, but were not always enthusiastic either. We had the feeling that we were lost between the different huts.
A very educational project for young and old. We regret in this period of Covid that we cannot participate in small workshops to touch the materials. Avoid in the event of high heat.
Good but too bad there is no more dialogue
Only one show and when it was time to start they saw all the people who had no place
Money pump
Good idea at the base, but after the visit personal not friendly. Not attractive. meal in the middle of wasps. to see without more
Few groups at reopening. Everyone is therefore very available to answer questions.
The surroundings are beautiful and the way this castle is made is beautiful. It is very interesting to see how it was in the Middle Ages.
AMAZING. This is fantastic and unlike anything else on the planet I imagine.
A beautiful project with good animators and interesting activities
Magical place, guided tour well done, and very nice craftsmen who willingly share their craft
A magical place not to be missed in the Yonne. Young and old will discover in a magnificent and green setting this grandiose project.
The on-site catering is homemade and in the medieval theme. Arrive early to find a place in the shade in the parking lot.
The motto "Build to learn" is indeed in the image of the site ... always great discoveries at each visit ...
Beautiful day, lots of people but all the craftsmen took the time to answer our questions precisely
Really great
To have. It is exceptional to have undertaken such a project
One of my absolute favourite touristic sites in France! If you're in the area, it's a MUST do!!!
Great project! Friendly and professional with the heart run
Very nice achievement with the means of the time to visit at least once
Unique site where children and parents learn while having fun. Hello we had a very good day
A must see. I do not regret going there. I have been interested in the evolution of this castle for a very long time and frankly I was pleasantly surprised and a big congratulations to all these enthusiasts.
A unique experience for a very reasonable price (15 ), you learn so much from the passionate artisans who work there. The book is impressive and promises you awe with children's eyes. Book a good day there to take advantage of all the workshops offered. Plenty of picnic space available and the on-site catering is of high quality.
Very nice site in the heart of nature and the castle that is progressing well then all these trades of the time very exciting by all these volunteers. Hat .. a small cafeteria is available ... c practice
Superb place. We learn a lot and above all we can access everything
To do with or without children. People explain the different trades through workshops.
Place of a very interesting experience technically and humanly. The story is pedagogical to arouse interest. Very nice work!
Very pleasant site to visit and very enriching.
In the middle of the forest, superb setting.
A number to the craftsmen's cabins would help to position this on the map
Change of scenery and advance tremendous since 2ans.le Meunier is a bible history.super embiance in all discovery workshops.
Good atmosphere, shame there's no fireworks at the end of the day.
Very pleasant place especially when it's done. I can't wait to see the progress of the work.
We spent a wonderful afternoon, visiting the castle and after the workshops are very informative. Passionate people, very interesting.
Have to do. It's really interesting. The 'workers' are not stingy with explanation. Suitable for both adults and children
What change and advanced in 5 years !!!!!
Congratulations to all the workers who work tirelessly but always with a smile kindness goodwill!
Special Mention to Jean-Maurice "Breton" to the Master Tailor and Eugene !!!!
Just a flat on the shop that has lost some of his soul guedelonesque ...
Too many WiFi and 4G waves. Too bad on a site supposed to be from the 12th century. Hello headaches
Wonderful experience, you learn a lot from the guide and everyone was happy to help and explain what was going on. Great experience
Mixed opinion, beautiful site with a lot of discovery but hollow!
Despite a great idea / initiative, interactions are weak, however the staff are very nice and helpful!
To be redone to compare over a more relaxed period.
we are building a castle! bring back your catapults !!!
A beautiful day, the third time since the beginning and still surprised
Great for both adults and children. Very playful and the companions are very accessible for explanations on their job.
Not bad at all ! A remark however concerning families. I find that the stones are a little too accessible for children, I almost attended many accidents (crushing of feet and throwing stones by children oblivious to the danger) so pay attention to the safety aspect on the site. But the site is very interesting.
Each time it is a rediscovery. What a change of scenery this trip to the Middle Ages
Very interesting place to visit. It is a real pleasure to see a medieval castle rise and to see the work accomplished by all the professions such as the blacksmith, the carpenter, etc ...
Living archeology, beautiful site created by passionate
Admirable work of enthusiasts, very instructive for children. Always a pleasure to revisit this place and see the evolution of the construction of the castle.
magnificent experience, one can easily discuss with the craftsmen who work on the castle.
Beautiful place, we have the real impression of landing in the Middle Ages.
Very enriching, we are more aware of how lucky we are to live in our time ...
Very nice quote we learn a lot of things but become a commercial with the years
A nice lesson for everyone. Congratulations to the enthusiasts who share with us their work in Guedelon
If you really want to learn things about the medieval period I recommend
The top of the top, for those who have the passion of the medieval, the workshops are great, everywhere answered your questions, about the trade (mason, stonemason, lumberjack, ironworkers, blacksmiths, ...... ..) you will spend a wonderful day, plan good shoes because if you want to do all the workshops, plus the castle, the mill, you will have to walk a lot.
Despite everything have not seen the time pass
With my wife we go there twice a year to follow the progress of work, May June, September October. Since 6 years, and not getting tired every year brings are lot of surprise. And all the staff are super friendly and friendly.
Authenticity of the place and respected working methods, simple, clear and fun explanations. Good dynamics. Pleasant and ready interlocutors.
I put 4 stars because toilets that are unusable, otherwise I will have 5 stars because it is a sick site.
congratulations to everybody
It was a beautiful representation of the middle ages
Extraordinary in all areas. Whether it is the construction, the workers with great availability, the village and so on.
To watch again and again. But hurry up
Super interesting, lots of things to see if you are interested in history and the Middle Ages.
Great visit, very educational, which changes the castles "told" since they live it and show it
Place to visit. Very pretty place. Much remains to be done
Nice place do not hesitate to stop there ... Nice garden ...
It's always nice to visit the castle and come see the evolution regularly ...
Impressive construction with medieval techniques. Very interesting.
A very good way to discover the life and techniques of the Middle Ages, which was much more advanced than we think.
Place to visit absolutely for those who want to see how the castles were built. What techniques were used.
