Romantic getaway at Sedan Castle

At the gateway to the Ardennes stands the most imposing fortified castle in Europe. It's in this medieval setting that an unusual experience for two awaits you. Take a leap back in history and live the life of a castle for a weekend!

An unusual getaway in Europe's largest fortified castle

Built in 1424, the Sedan fortress and its curious triangular shape never cease to amaze. Over the centuries, nine princes and princesses succeeded one another to give it the splendour we know today, and its gargantuan dimensions: 35,000 m², more than twice the size of the Stade de France! This emblematic figure of the Ardennes will be the setting for your weekend away.

Get a taste of castle life!

The hotel****, located in the very heart of the castle, offers you an enchanted and atypical interlude in a medieval atmosphere that's perfect for getting away from it all. Your Première room offers a breathtaking view of the castle courtyard. A painting at the head of the bed, a wall of yellow Dom stone typical of the Ardennes: the medieval experience is complete!

In this legendary fortress, dreams are sweet!

In the evening, head to the "La Principauté" restaurant for a sumptuous candlelit dinner. Chef Olivot will concoct a discovery menu with a wine and food pairing, using fresh seasonal produce.

Explore the castle by torchlight

At night, the castle takes on an enchanting and mysterious atmosphere. Accompanied by a guide, discover this jewel of medieval architecture by the light of a lantern! You'll stroll along the covered walkway, usually closed to the public, which offers a breathtaking view of the castle courtyard. Lovers of stone and legends will be delighted!

Don't leave Sedan without exploring the town! Upstream from the Meuse, overlooked by its fortified castle, beautiful Sedan reveals itself behind its yellow bricks and majestic buildings. Stroll between the Palais des Princes and characterful town houses, before coming upon the Art Nouveau-influenced Botanical Gardens.
