[edit] Chateau Gaillard in ficion

Hi. There is a confusion. The castle in Le Piège diabolique of the Blake and Mortimer series is La Roche-Guyon, not Chateau-Gaillard. M-le-mot-dit 17:41, 6 January 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Dismantled

Quote: "Château-Gaillard was dismantled 400 years later under Henry IV of France." The 400 figure is confusing. Does it mean 400 years after the castle was built (possible) or 400 years after the previous date, 1346 (impossible), or is 400 a typo? I'm guessing the first, it which case a simple clarification is needed, but don't want to change it just in case I'm wrong. Emeraude 11:00, 20 January 2007 (UTC)

The demolition of the castle was done after 1590 and stopped in 1611 (but was continued under Richelieu). So it is 400 years after the castle was built, not 400 years after 1340. — M-le-mot-dit 16:56, 20 January 2007 (UTC) —

[edit] No architecture in this page?

What gives? This is one of the most significant buildings of the middle-ages. CJ DUB 23:25, 3 September 2007 (UTC)
