Château de Bar sur Seine, Medieval castle ruins in Bar-sur-Seine, France.
The stone remains of Château de Bar sur Seine stand on elevated ground, featuring defensive walls and a preserved guard room.
The castle changed hands between Burgundian dukes and French kings during the Hundred Years War until local inhabitants destroyed it in 1594.
The French Ministry of Culture designated this former seat of the Counts of Bar as a registered historic monument in 1982.
The castle ruins maintain restricted access, with guided tours available through the Bar-sur-Seine town office during heritage days.
The fortress represents the largest medieval military construction in the region, positioned at the border between Champagne and Burgundy territories.
