Château d'Autricourt, Medieval fortress in Autricourt, France.

The castle features multiple round towers and square structures with arrow slits, surrounded by a water-filled moat reflecting the ancient ramparts.

Originally built in the 11th century, the fortress changed ownership multiple times, including possession by the Dukes of Burgundy in 1299.

The castle represents architectural evolution through centuries, with modifications from the 14th, 16th, and 19th centuries visible in its current structure.

The castle grounds include a circular dovecote on the eastern side and a U-shaped courtyard providing access to different residential sections.

A five-sided turret houses a spiral staircase, combining defensive architecture with residential functionality in an unusual geometric design.
