Château de Dieppe perché sur la falaise, vue sur le front de mer à l'arrière planThe castle was first built at the same time as the town’s fortification walls (between 1340 and 1360), of which the two turrets on the beach are the most visible part. We’ll take advantage of the esplanade for a few moments to contemplate the panorama. We discover the north-western part of the building, which closes off the city limits with a dungeon-tower at the top of which traces of the battlements are still visible, the peppered roof having been added at a later date. The tower is built of alternating flint and sandstone. The west-facing perimeter wall leads to a postern through which you can enter the castle.

Couple se baladant dans la cour intérieure du Château de DieppeOnce in the inner courtyard, the descent can be made through four distinct courtyards, each marking a successive era of transformation and enlargement of the building. At the southern end, the remains of the former Saint-Rémy church are still visible. Whichever route you choose, you’ll be able to observe the composite architecture and materials that help you decipher the history and evolution of this monument.
