The Château de Guise developed into a 17-hectare fortress. At that time, the complex was surrounded by more than 1.5 kilometres of fortification walls; 4-hectare-wide moats served its defence.

At the Château fort de Guise, visitors can choose between a self-guided and a guided tour with the same admission ticket. The tour includes numerous steps. In the underground areas, the average temperature is 13 Â°C.

Culture and History

The Familistère de Guise continues to house residents while also welcoming visitors. It is therefore one of the places where living and visiting take place within the same complex.

The Eglise Saint-Médard de Guise has been documented at this site since 1352. The present building was rebuilt or altered in the late 15th or early 16th century.

Its architectural features include a stone choir with two bays, a brick nave divided into five aisles, and a square bell tower with a polygonal spire.

The Abbaye de Bohéries, a historic site, is located in the immediate vicinity of Guise. In the wider region are the Abbaye Notre-Dame de Fervaques and the Abbaye Notre-Dame d'Homblières, both historic sites, as well as the Château de Beaurevoir, a castle.

Renting a holiday apartment in Guise is a personal travel decision with the Château de Guise in view.

Nature and Landscape

The Jardin de la Presqu'île is a park and garden in Guise that focuses on the bocage landscape of Thiérache. This complex includes a 10-hectare former communal meadow that was called Pré du Moulin-neuf in the 19th century.

The EuroVelo 3 runs for approximately 40 kilometres along the Oise through the countryside. The route passes meadows, small villages situated on higher ground, and fortified churches.
