Château de Fécamp, Medieval castle ruins in Fécamp, France
The stone fortress stands near Trinity Abbey, featuring rectangular walls measuring 46 meters by 26 meters with remaining fragments of ancient towers.
The castle served as a primary residence for early Norman dukes, including William Longsword and Richard I, who was born within its walls in 932.
The castle and nearby abbey formed a center of Norman power, attracting scholars and artists throughout the medieval period in Normandy.
Located at 4 Avenue du Maréchal de Lattre de Tassigny, the castle remains can be observed from the exterior near Trinity Abbey.
Archaeological excavations revealed the castle's evolution from wooden construction to stone fortification, with a square keep added in the 12th century.
