In the sumptuous setting of the inner courtyard of the medieval château de Blandy, the show invites us to relive its greatest glories. This sound and light show takes us on an epic journey through the history of Blandy castle. The show is an epic journey through the key events in the history of Blandy castle and its owners, brought to light by the History of France. It begins in the Middle Ages, just before the castle was built, and continues through 800 years of history. Battles, political intrigue, medieval life and love stories, this wild epic slows down shortly before the French Revolution, and then moves gently into the latter part of our history, when the château was acquired by the town of Blandy in the 19th century.

This show is presented by Holymage. As part of the Emmenez-moi Heritage Festival, the opening night is exceptionally free of charge , but you can still discover L'héritage des Vicomtes in a paying version until August 31, 2024.
