Franche Comte Chateaux and Castles

The region boasts a prestigious past and many ancient buidings are still there for you to visit them. There are Chateaux but also Abbeys. Here is a selection of the best places to see.
  • Besancon Citadel

    Definitely a must-see. In ancient and recent times, this has been a place of struggle, fights and courage. It was created by Vauban, famous architect that gave France many fortified cities being an actual nightmare for invaders. It is still perfectly maintained. It obviously can be visited, and also hosts other museums on local life or science. It is both a touristic and cultural place. It is registered in UNESCO world heritage list since July 2008.
  • Besancon Citadel

  • Montbéliard

    It is often called "City of Princes".Born of the marriage between an heiress from Comté and a young prince of the empire it kept the charm of the lovely cities of the Württemberg Empire. Stone-built market places, 17th century churches, Renaissance townhouses and small houses, all with bright colours like lavender, lilac... this imperial city still boasts lots of glory.
  • Montbéliard Chateau

  • The Peugeot Museum

    The Peugeot Museum deals with the history of the brand with the "roaring lion symbol". From old cars from the beginning of the last century to futurist prototypes, racing cars, you can see many things there. The museum is foremost dedicated to young people.
