Château de Lillebonne, Medieval castle ruins in Lillebonne, France.
The castle features a cylindrical keep with three vaulted levels and an octagonal tower situated at the corner of a former Gallo-Roman settlement.
William the Conqueror constructed the initial fortress in the 11th century, which Philip II of France later enhanced by adding defensive structures and moats.
The castle served as a location for Norman ducal councils, including a significant assembly in 1080 that addressed relations between church and state.
The fortress stands 350 meters east of Notre-Dame Church, with the Gallo-Roman museum Juliobona and ancient theater within walking distance.
The castle structure deteriorated after 1760 when thieves removed lead from its roof, causing water damage that led to structural failures.
