Château de Lion-sur-Mer, Medieval castle in Lion-sur-Mer, France.
The Château de Lion-sur-Mer incorporates a central mansion from the 17th and 18th centuries alongside a pavilion constructed around 1540 with Gothic elements.
The castle's foundations date back to 1300, and it underwent major transformations from a fortified structure to a bourgeois residence in the early 16th century.
The castle's chapel shifted from Catholic to Protestant services in the 19th century, reflecting the religious changes in the Normandy region.
Visitors can access the castle through 16 Rue de Luc-Sur-Mer, with special openings during Heritage Days for exploring the private estate grounds.
The estate maintains its original 18th-century cider press facilities within the agricultural buildings, connecting to the local apple production traditions.
