45 min of queue, 1 open case while it is school holidays, blue card dumb, 4 unsuccessful attempts, no contactless, no network pr buy online, no distributor ... in short I came, I I saw nothing and I left empty handed :( not glop! And the hostess, a smile and I train training buttocks would be seriously considered;)
Very pleasant visit, beautiful construction of a fortified castle, worth the trip
Really interesting, but probably because of the Covid, no very intense activity on the site, some workshops are not working, we will come back!
We can spend the day with family, young and old, we can picnic there. Benches tables as at the time.
Shady .. Fun, informative: hyper Calais guide .. humor and pun ....... Go there it is great.
To visit absolutely with the guided visit. I loved. There is mm the possibility of doing an internship to discover the various trades
Part serious research, part tourist attraction. Amazing to see the enormous effort needed for building the castle.
Great looking castle in a beautiful forest.
Very good tour and very nice craftsmen who do not hesitate to share their knowledge.
Nice place to visit. Very interesting to see how castles were built in the middle ages.
No entertainment on this date. Very dry, to be well shod.
Always a pleasure to see the progress, the project advance!
Curious idea of wanting to build a castle. Very successful, fun workshops.
In short you have to go absolutely
Interesting tour for who wants to know how to build a real castle.
Human and technical experience.
You really have to be a little crazy to complete this project.
But in Guedelon this part of madness is perhaps genius.
Well done for everything
YOU MUST VISIT
Very nice and very interesting to visit with the family staff and pleasant and attentive craftsmen
Congratulations to all those who contribute to the reconstruction of the castle, the work is huge.
The challenge is enormous and is progressing quite well. The workshops are very well done and very well explained by enthusiasts. To visit without hesitation.
To see in his life because this site is very curious by all his trades in the old and the construction of the castle and it takes the day to enjoy it.
But do not forget that we are still able to build a castle in the 2000s !!!!
I say congratulations for the workers and volunteers.
Brilliant we have the impression of being in the middle ages !!!
To see !!!
It's already been the 2nd time that I've been to this castle, and it's not over yet. Seeing the evolution of this is a very beautiful experience, the craftsmen on site share their experience, their profession and their passion with us.
Very pleasant experience for my young and old alike grands
A very instructive place on the habits and customs in the Middle Ages for both young and old. Note the workshop "stonemason" which will allow you to leave with a unique masterpiece!
Great .... nothing to say excellent day to remake without hesitation
Superb work done! We could visit the finished part of the castle, the workers are available and talk about their work with a lot of fun, the medieval atmosphere is really recreated, especially since the castle is located in the white zone so no laptop! It's really exotic! And both children and adults can participate in workshops.
Very interesting to see old crafts actually performed.
This is a must experience place for anyone who love medieval fantasies, history or the origins of Europe. It's the largest archeological experiment in the world. How to build a castle from scratch using the original techniques of 800 years ago. Truly worth it!
The yard is moving forward, but it is still interesting !!
Very informative and the workers are available to answer your questions
It is a place to visit it is beautiful and handmade, building a castle with the elements and materials as in the past
Nothing. Arrived too late for a detailed visit. I'll be back.
It is a place not to be missed when you visit the Yonne. So many craftsmen of the past full of enthusiasm and know-how, with so much dedication and ready to give us the most accurate explanations. What a magnificent construction this castle and its outbuildings are. well done
A very rich day. Listening and very interesting craftsmen. The stonemasonry workshop for children is great memories.
Crazy work, but a pity that the workers are not very talkative in explaining their work.
For lovers of castles, an exceptional example of building ex nihilo as at the time and rediscovering all the methods of the middle ages.
A long-term project, to be followed from year to year; planned for 25 years minimum ...
Very interesting but I will not go in August a lot of people
Fourth visit in ten years. Always as interesting. Do not forget to go and see the mill.
Always so interesting but disappointment for some workshops. The uncommunicative tile makers, talking about their schedule for the next day in front of ten visitors waiting for something other than a union meeting and a not very talkative and borderline friendly paint maker ...
Bravo on the other hand for the commentator of the mill, for the manufacturer of shingles and the tailpiece. All three fun and interesting. The stonemasons, carpenters and woodturners did their educational work well.
It is the same of this experience and some seem to forget it. That's why we were a little disappointed ...
Really spent a great day ... 2 hours of guided tour, to fully understand what they do ..., and then free walk around the different stalls of the different trades necessary for the construction (dyeing, carpenter, basket maker, tailors stone ...) to refine the explanations of the construction.
Catering service more than good, and varied ...
In short, to recommend ...
Very nice places very interesting and suitable for children
Place that deserves a visit. For lovers of old castles
A few more years to go and then the construction of this castle is completed. Fantastic work with only hand tools, recreated, as in the early Middle Ages.
Very nice visit around a beautiful project, initially associative, unfortunately alas commercial. Team on site very welcoming and caring. Picnic areas should be developed, with the majority of visitors coming for the day.
Really great experience with the family. There is something for everyone, from adults to children (5 years old).
This site is particularly exceptional. For 21 years, employed craftsmen have participated in the construction of this unique fortified castle in France and in the world. If you have never visited it go there it is worth the detour. You will spend a few hours there you will not regret it. Good visit.
Unique site of its kind, authentic constructions in an exceptional setting. Do not miss this little gem.
Very nice site. Too bad that the 80 visit is not complete and does not take into account the comments of visitors to the guide.
A truly remarkable site combining history and discovery through various workshops explaining how formerly it was done to make tiles, build a framework, cut stones, make baskets, hiding pigments etc ... It's like back in 1250! You have the possibility to eat a menu of time on the spot, to participate in the workshops, to ask precise questions to the craftsmen ... I strongly advise you the guided visit which brings a little more on the site and which reframes a little when you do not know where to turn so there are things to see! Thank you Sylvie :)
Magnificent and very interesting site. We chose the guided tour of the castle and we learn a lot. To do. The village is also great!
An exceptional experience to see or live at every step
Fantastic!!! For those who are fond of the Middle Ages like me it is an unmissable destination. In addition to the castle that they are building scrupulously following techniques and materials of the time, there is a sort of village around where about fifty figures "produce" everything necessary for the construction. One of the most beautiful things I have seen in France.
A rise in time, welcome to the Middle Ages, let's live the construction of a feudal castle
To do and redo
Great job done but disappointed because we saw that the realization of the ropes. No other workshop was functioning. We came 10 years ago and the site was much more alive. There just posters explaining the work of each. We would have liked to show our grandchildren the work of each trade.
A dive into the heart of the 13th century ...
The artisans are very open to answering questions ... they know their job at their fingertips and are therefore very interesting.
Attention, if you have opted for the visit with audio guide ... remember to download the files of the visit BEFORE you go there, because it is in a white area and there is no Wifi either. .. it is the 13th century down to the details!
Castle under construction .. the staff is very pleasant
13th century castle under construction: very interesting visit.
Very beautiful site. Very interesting to see all these trades working
Incredible fools;) Well done, what you do can only elicit admiration. Well done.
To see the work of the volunteers is remarkable a flat the privileged restoration the picnic
I really like the movie my friend showed me on his phone
Back in the past very exotic.
To do absolutely
A very good time to recommend for adults and children, however I find it a bit expensive for children 11 from 5 years old to 11 years old
A truly unique place, with passionate people who do not hesitate to share their passion. Visit to do!
Incredible ... definitely worth seeing, happy to share with children
For once we see a castle being built. And all around the houses of the various trades. To do with family .. human size .. a real participative experience in addition ...
