Free Walking Sightseeing Tour #1 in Falaise, France

The Château de Falaise is a castle from the 12th-13th century, located in the south of the commune of Falaise in the département of Calvados, in the region of Normandy, France. William the Conqueror, the son of Duke Robert of Normandy, was born at an earlier castle on the same site in about 1028. William went on to conquer England and become king, and possession of the castle descended through his heirs until the 13th century, when it was captured by King Philip II of France. Because of his association to the location it is also known as Château Guillaume le Conquérant or William the Conqueror's Castle.
