You might be encouraged to visit today, but Blaye Citadel hasn't always been so welcoming! Learn the story behind this stronghold and exactly what it was designed to defend.

Blaye Citadel is an ideal place to begin your discovery of Blaye. This history-filled fortress comes recommended by fellow travelers, but it isn't the only thing to do here. Allow some time for other attractions like Chateau Margaux, Chateau Lynch-Bages, and Chateau Latour to get a complete picture of what the area has to offer.

A well located hotel, only a 10 minute walk from the train station. Lovely staff. More interesting than the usual chain hotels. Funky rooms with comfortable beds. Would stay again.
