Josselin Castle

On the banks of the Oust River, Josselin Castle, founded in the early 11th century, is an important stop on the Route des Ducs (Dukes' Route).

Owned by the Rohan family, one of the oldest in Brittany, it is the symbol of the town of Josselin. The history of this small, characterful town is closely linked to that of the castle that dominates it. Its flamboyant Gothic style is a testament to the feudal architecture of the Renaissance. After visiting the castle, take the time to stroll through its gardens.

Discover Josselin Castle at the intersection of the Vélodyssée stages from Pontivy to Josselin and from Josselin to Peillac.
