A magnificent, breathtaking view where you see the city and its surroundings. The Castle leads its history of the Middle Ages. Here you will be seduced by the charm of exotic plants, waterfalls, and historic ruins. At the time, the people lived there because the castle was destroyed by the army of the King of France; Louis XIV in the XVIII. Every day of the year at noon, a cannon shot is given by the Castle for over a century! The origin of this custom dates back to 1860 when Sir Thomas Coventry had settled with his wife at the current Lycée Masséna. Madam, a little talkative, was slow to return. It was then that Sir Coventry imagined a solution to make it back at midday: to fire at cannon at noon!
