Château de Montmorency, Medieval castle in Montigny-en-Ostrevent, France.

The entrance of the castle features two U-shaped towers flanking a large pointed arch gate, with defensive elements including a former portcullis system.

Robert I of Montigny constructed the initial stone tower around 1130 on marshy land, and the castle underwent reinforcements during the Hundred Years' War.

The castle hosts an annual medieval festival on the first Sunday of May, featuring historical camps, combat displays, and archery demonstrations.

The site functions as an equestrian center, restaurant, and accommodation facility, with the restaurant open every day except Saturdays.

The castle operates as an ESAT center, providing vocational training opportunities for individuals with disabilities in catering and equestrian activities.
