We were surprised to discover that the audio guides we had purchased were not the official ones for the castle. But in the end, when we downloaded the application, we did indeed have the information. Problem: our phone battery ran out faster than with the castle audio guide.

It would be nice to indicate that dogs are not allowed even in a bag !!!! Whereas in a bag especially a small dog I don't see why it's not allowed!!!!

Very practical and quick to reserve tickets online, and above all, to avoid wasting time in the queue (which is quite long during school vacations and the summer season) at the ticket office.

The reservation was great because you avoid queues. The experience was great because you can access the castle inside and along the walls.
