Nice quiet morning due to some sort of staff strike meant people who did not have electronic tickets struggled to get in and we waltzed right in in. - not very well run in my opinion

I couldn't get a normal ticket, it was full?? But at the same time i could get a more expensive ticket with audio, strange. So it wasn't full Why?? I didn't want audio and didn't use it. It ssems to be a mthod to sell more expensive tickets But the castle was really beautiful.

The rooms were gorgeous, as is the electric exterior. The audio didn't work. The line at the entry front was chaotic, very crowed in beginning of tour & when there were route options it thinned out. Loved the hung room, and terraces & views of courtyard. We hiked up from the train station, a clear route marker along the way would be helpful. We walked to the old fort after castle.

The ticket office manager let us through, so I don't know if the problem was with the ticket or with the verification system itself. That said, my ticket didn't have the right name (a Greek name, but I'm French!).

Booking the tickets was very easy and everything was digital. Access was very easy and the castle, at least what's left of it, is wonderful. You can let your imagination reconstruct everything and live back in those days.
