Château de Suscinio

Château de Suscinio is a medieval stone castle on a wooded coastal estate in Brittany, France, notable for several large cylindrical towers with steep conical roofs and a long pitched-roof range between them. The surviving fabric presents continuous coursed ashlar masonry, regular small windows, corbelled parapet bands and tall chimneys.

As it stood in 1450

The shape it held in its prime.

Compact ensemble of thick cylindrical stone towers with steep conical slate roofs and fleur-de-lis finials, linked by a long, steeply pitched roofed range with tall rectangular chimneys. Towers show a continuous corbelled band beneath the roofline (machicolation-like course) and small rectangular and slit windows set into pale grey-beige ashlar masonry. The castle rises above surrounding mature trees and parkland; roof slate is dark, walls are regular coursed stone, and the silhouette is dominated by the round towers.
