Famous site of the battle between Protestants and Catholics in the royal army in 1569. This 11th-century keep, built by Foulques Nerra, served as an outpost at Mirebeau and to protect the citadel at Loudun. The view from the 25-metre high tower is breathtaking!
Visit limited to 10 people. Moncontour is one of France's Green Resorts
