In the story

Between tomb and fortress, this monument has an atypical character. Now owned by the commune of Roncey, it is open only on special occasions and on Heritage Days.

We discover a crypt, several rooms on several levels, balcony, staircase, … an incredible architecture, a terrace with an unobstructed view of the surrounding countryside, construction elements for which it must have taken a lot of courage and motivation … in short a beautiful example out of the ordinary of our local heritage.
