Location History
Braced against the chalk cliffs of the Seine valley (particularly admirable at Vétheuil), the Château de La Roche-Guyon provides an impressive summary of 1000 years of French history. Long owned by the La Rochefoucauld family, its troglodyte galleries, underground stairways and 18th-century salons are now open to the public.
