Coucy-le-Chateau Description
Coucy-le-Château, northeast of Paris, was once France's largest and finest medieval castle, with a magnificent keep (now destroyed). The town is still well worth visiting, with its circuit of walls and 28 13th C. towers and the surviving round towers of the castle.

The medieval tower stood uncaptured over 700 years. This feudal military architecture was conceived by Enguerrand III, lord of Coucy. It comprises 14 ha with three encircling walls totaling 2.4 km in length with 30 tours. The chateau is now an imposing ruin within the town.
