Summary

Description
Français : Châteaudun (Eure-et-Loir)

Le château.

La grosse tour ou donjon a été construite à la fin du XIIème siècle par Thibaud V. C'est la seule partie du château d'origine des comtes de Blois. La tour a été couverte d'une charpente en 1450 par Dunois. C'est l'un des donjons les mieux conservés de France. Les sous-sols de la tour ont servi de prison pendant la période révolutionnaire.

A droite, l'aile Longueville est édifiée sous François II de Longueville, petit fils de Dunois, à partir de 1510.

Le grand escalier Renaissance, bâti dans l'angle nord-ouest, est couvert d'un haut toit et flanqué de deux tourelles. L'escalier s'inspire du quattrocento italien.

A gauche, l'aile Dunois du XV ème siècle.
