Built by William the Conqueror and favored by Norman dukes and British kings, this castle is one of the largest walled fortifications in Europe. After the 1944 bombings, the town restored the structure’s remains, which now boast ramparts with great views of the city, the Museum of Normandy and the Museum of Fine Arts.
