Castle of Thiers-sur-Thève, Gothic castle ruins in Thiers-sur-Thève, France.

The castle features nine circular towers along its square perimeter measuring 56.80 meters on each side, with towers ranging from 9.60 to 10.30 meters in diameter.

Built between 1250 and 1260 by Thibault de Beaumont-Gâtinais and his wife Jeanne, the castle fell into ruins after suffering severe damage during the Grande Jacquerie in 1358.

The ceremonial hall, spanning 25 meters in length and 8 meters in width, displays large windows that exemplify medieval residential architecture in the Île-de-France region.

The castle ruins are located at 9 Place du Château in Thiers-sur-Thève, with several hotels and guesthouses available in the surrounding area.

The castle served as a hunting lodge for the bishops of Beauvais before its partial dismantlement in 1431 following official orders to lower its walls.
