Château de Robert le Diable
Moulineaux, France, France
The Château de Robert le Diable is a medieval castle ruin located in Moulineaux, near Rouen in Normandy.
Built during the 11th and 12th centuries, it occupies a strategic hilltop position overlooking the Seine Valley, making it an important defensive stronghold during the era of the Dukes of Normandy. The castle is named after the legendary “Robert the Devil,” a figure often associated with Robert I, Duke of Normandy and father of William the Conqueror.
The fortress was linked to key historical figures, including Richard the Lionheart, and was repeatedly damaged, destroyed, and rebuilt during conflicts between the French and English crowns and the Hundred Years’ War. Today, the partially restored ruins are a popular heritage site, known for their dramatic setting, medieval atmosphere, and panoramic views over the Seine Valley. The château’s blend of history, legend, and scenic surroundings makes it one of Normandy’s most intriguing historic landmarks.
