Tour of the 1000-year old Château de Saint-Fargeau

http://www.gobarging.com/ Tour of the 1000-year old Château de Saint-Fargeau During our classic Upper Loire and Burgundy cruise we visit the Château de Saint Fargeau, a handsome, pentagonal and moated château that is over 1,000 years old. In 980, Héribert, Auxerre's bishop and son of King Hugues Capet built this fortified hunting meeting place which has been wonderfully restored and includes an extensive collection of art, porcelain and antiques. Château St-Fargeau, one of the many elegant residential châteaux in this region, has a history that spans ten centuries. Its origins go back to 980, when the bishop of Auxerre built it as a fortified hunting lodge. In 1453, the present pentagonal castle was built over the base of the original fortress. The six huge towers were built between the 15th and 17th century. The Lepeletier family acquired it in 1715 and kept it until 1968. During the summer, historic spectacles involving more than 600 actors and 50 mounted knights retrace the life of the castle and the region. The château also contains a working Renaissance farm complete with animals, tools and machinery of the age.
