If you are at Disney with the kids, do them a favor and bring them here. The fortress dates from the middle ages and was used as both a royal residence and a prsion. The donjon/keep is fascinating, as is the Sainte Chappelle. There is nothing else like it easily accessible from Paris. Worth a half a day.

At the end of line 1, Chateau de Vincennes is impressive. Do not expect a mini Versailles, this is an early medieval keep complete with moat and bare stone walls throughout. It is, however, replete with history, which is simply but elegantly presented in the main chambers through digital displays and placards. The story of Charles V managing his forces from the small "office" on the battlements so as to regain lost French territories, without taking the field himself, captured my imagination. His living quarters in the donjon, and the Sainte Chapelle opposite, are similarly simple, elegant and entrancing. Be warned, there are quite a few steps.A great morning visit, finished off with an excellent Boeuf Bourguignon at le Drapeau restaurant opposite the main gate.

One of the little known gems in a jewel strewn city - Le Parc Floral in Paris. As the denizens of Vincennes would no doubt be swift to point out, this isn’t really Paris at all, but as the fit could easily walk it from such landmarks as Nation and the capital’s buses and metro go there, let’s call it such. From April to September you have an amazing facility that brilliantly blends nature and outdoor activity in a delightful rustic setting. A collection of pavilions nestle among the woodland and house unique collections of flora and fauna that are replicated in the formal and wilder sections of the park. Set amongst all this is an adventure playground and a fairground-style railway for younger children. For lazy adults in groups up to eight there are pedal-powered ‘taxis’ for hire in which to tour the attractions. But be warned, although the park is open throughout the year and is a superb free space for a relaxing stroll in any season, there is an entry fee in high summer, some of the activities incur a charge and are not available in winter. However, exact details are provided on the park’s website. Not usually charged for are the jazz and classical music concerts that take place in summer under a lakeside canopy.

(There is no mention yet of the Château de Vincennes in the list of attractions proposed by TripAdvisor, it is why I had to add my little report under the item “Bois de Vincennes”, which is just next to the Castle).For the price of a metro ticket, at the end of Line 1, you reach the Castle of Vincennes and you jump directly into the Middle Ages. Pass the great Village Tower, complete with its drawbridge, and you enter the vast fortified area where the French King John II The Good (Jean Le Bon) erected a high dungeon in the XIVth century. It is one of largest dungeon of that period still standing today. Its visit lets you understand how it was defended and how the king lived there, with his study and the room where he held his Council. The building is in very good condition and the circuit leads you through most of the rooms and levels, including the cell where the marquis de Sade has been detained. You don’t need much imagination to see the soldiers defending the place and the king meeting his court. Across the large place in front of the dungeon, you find the Sainte Chapelle, constructed by the king Charles V from 1379 and on, after the model of the Sainte Chapelle in the royal palace in the City Island in Paris: it is interesting, among other things for the tomb of the Duke of Enghien, but the colored glasses at the high gothic windows do not match at all those in the original Sainte Chapelle in Paris. Beyond the chapel, the two huge buildings: the King’s Pavilion and the Queen’s Pavilion designed by Le Vau on request of the king Louis the XIVth, face each other in a very solemn manner, testimony of a long use of the castle. The whole area is worth to look at leisurely and to feel a bit what it could have been there in the past. An easy excursion from Paris, well recommended.

Historic but not particularly interesting site, an easy metro ride just outside Paris. An informative audio tour, but basically only two points of interest inside the walls: an underwhelming gothic church and unfurnished medieval castle, leaving to your imagination what it might have looked like. Perhaps a necessary stop for students of French medieval history, but not a must-see while in Paris.

Visisted the chateau in the morning as it opened. Although a lot of it is undergoing reconstruction, there was enough to see in a morning and it was significantly less busy than Versailles. Good trip. But not mind blowing.

Conveniently located at the very end of the #1 Metro, this feels like a getaway from central Paris. An important complex of buildings in the history of France spanning many periods of construction and use. There is a lot of restoration work being done. The stunning chapel is open and the cleaned interior is now dazzling. The chapel facade was still shrouded in scaffolding. The whole area in front of the old chateau is still very torn up. The rooms in the donjon are mostly empty so the interest is as a defensive structure. There were no crowds here. There is an extensive audio tour in English that would take quite a while to totally complete.

Impressive castle palace of the French kings before they built Versailles. Enormous inner court, hughe towers. A pity that the Chapelle Royal cannot be visited. For genealogy fans: you can search for the military data of your ancesters in the army archives.

A striking building with interesting history and room to explore without falling over all the other tourists.
