The Chateau Galliard Joseph’s Tour of:
The castle was almost unbeatable because it was built 90 meters above the Seine River, for a tactical advantage. “Château Gaillard consists of three baileys—an inner, a middle, and an outer with the main entrance to the castle. Plus a keep, also called a donjon, in the inner- bailey. The baileys, which were separated by rock-cut ditches, housed the castle's stables, workshops, and storage facilities.” That’s a long walk for someone trying to take over the castle, or maybe just merchant delivering goods. All the Walkways were protected by Towers, that archers would guard. All night and all day. You weren’t getting through unless you were invited. That’s my tour of the Chateau Galliard.
