The castle houses wonderful sets of furniture, earthward, lace, weapons and rare objects from Africa and the far East. Opened in 1869, the Gorges, 300 m long and 70m deep, surpass in picturesqueness and striking size the most famous Gorges. At the exit, the river threads its way through a veritable maze of rocks. It is a vast lapiaz with tormented shapes called a "sea of rocks"
