Château de Bourg Archambault (86390 / Vienne / France)
Un premier édifice du XIIIe siècle, aujourd’hui rasé, a été remplacé par la forteresse actuelle à partir de 1478 grâce à Poncet de Rivière, chambellan de Louis XI. Au milieu du XIXe siècle, le château est acheté par la famille Augier de Crémiers qui fera restaurer l’ensemble e ajouter les trois tours de façade. A l’origine, le château était doté d’une enceinte qui englobait le bourg. Aujourd’hui, il est encore entouré de douves et un châtelet d’entrée (avec quatre tours) équipé à l’origine d’un pont-levis, commande l’entrée au logis.
Le système de défense comporte une herse, des archères canonnières, un chemin de ronde. L’enceinte du XVe siècle est flanquée de six tours dont une fait office de donjon.
Une chapelle est aménagée dans la tour sud-est. Les deux logis primitifs en fond de cour sont reliés entre eux.
La chapelle du XVe siècle est riche d’une ornementation gothique flamboyant et d’un carrelage remarquable en terre cuite émaillée portant les monogrammes de Louis XII et Anne de Bretagne.

Malcesine is the main settlement along the narrow strip of flatter land on the eastern side of the lake running north from Garda through to Torbole and Riva del Garda. It is one of the most attractive settlements on the whole lake and has drawn writers and artists to admire the lovely setting and the relics of history in the town.
Malcesine's Scaliger castle is a reminder of the strategic position of the town and the battles that were fought over who controlled this important fortification.
