Visit this Friday, August 30 to the Donezan Heritage House and the Usson Castle. We are received very warmly by the person at reception with whom we engage in a fairly long and complete conversation about this magnificent "country" of Donezan, about the deterioration of the climate which is dangerously endangering the "winter sports" activity. surrounding stations.
We appreciate and admire the architecture, the layout of the rooms, the eminently educational content of what is on display and the rather dizzying character of the castle on this site which is a real jewel.
Bravo for this enhancement of local heritage!
A special mention for the very “speaking” slideshow in the beautiful auditorium.
A treat!
For €4.50 it is not bad, but keep in mind that you are not going to see much, do not expect a castle as such, because it is demolished and they are being rehabilitated. Good to see the old room exhibition and various things found in the area. Keep in mind that the access road to the area has narrowings and the French come quickly and do not slow down. You have to leave the car in a grass parking lot next to the river and go uphill for about 15 minutes following the path, which is paved, but there are steep sections. If you are not in shape, you make stops. If you are in the area you can go, but I don't recommend going on purpose. Some type of guide with explanations of the rooms is missing so you don't have to imagine them.
We didn't go in, but we drove past the castle. Although we stopped in the car park and intended to go in, our footwear was inappropriate considering the length of the walk to even get near to the castle so we just enjoyed the view from afar.
Great castle! Despite a grueling climb of around ten minutes, once at the top the panorama is splendid!
I recommend the treasure hunt with children and the awesome falconry show!!!
Very interesting, beautiful panoramic view at the top of the medieval tower.
There is also a fascinating museum inside the building.
Few tourists so we could wander around alone.
A beautiful environment, an excellent museum showing the heritage of the surrounding settlements and life throughout history. Beautiful castle ruins. The museum staff is extremely friendly.
