The latest construction project
Thanks to its imposing military architecture, Bridoré Castle has stood the test of time. However, the walls required some restoration work in 2021.
The restoration was concentrated on two projects :
-
one of four caponiers which was damaged by water infiltration, vegetation...
-
The counterscarp wall 15 meters high (cut stone capping) also showed signs of fragility.
The cost of the works was financed at 60% by the Regional Directorate of Cultural Affairs, speak Departmental Council(up to 10%) and the current owners of the Castle (at 22.5%) and finally by several private investors gathered around a transaction of crowd funding launched on the site dartagnans.fr.
During the works
The works began in April 2021 and took place over 7 months until end of October 2021.
The Bridore Castle welcomed its first visitors whilst the works were underway, allowing them to see the restoration progressing in real time.
