Torreon del Castillo de Angers - a photo on Flickriver

El Castillo de Angers (en francés Château d'Angers), es un castillo ubicado en la ciudad de Angers, en el departamento de Maine y Loira, en Francia.
La fortaleza, sobre un promontorio rocoso que domina el río Maine, fue uno de los sitios ocupados por el imperio romano a causa de su posición defensiva estratégica.
Durante las Guerras de religión, Enrique III dio la orden de destripar el sitio (plaza) con el fin de que no cayera en manos de los protestantes. Comenzaron a descoronar las torres, pero los trabajos fueron interrumpidos y se mantuvo su capacidad defensiva instalando artillería en la parte superior de las terrazas.

"La pálida muerte lo mismo llama a las cabañas de los humildes que a las torres de los reyes."
Horacio (65 a.C. - 8 a.C.) Poeta lírico y satírico latino.
