Underground Dungeons, a Tower Keep & An Iron Cage
Le Donjon de La Cite Royale de Loches的点评
点评：The Loches Dunjon is a part of the Royal City complex. Sitting on top of a high, rocky outcrop and encircled by medieval walls and ramparts, the complex includes the dunjon, the Royal Chateau, and St Ours Church (with the tomb of Agnes Sorel).
You can just wander around inside the grounds and visit the church for free but you’d be missing an awful lot if you didn’t also go inside the dungeon and chateau. It’s a single entry ticket and great value at 10,50 € for both.
This was one of the best-preserved tower dungeons I’d ever seen. Very impressive.
Although the rooms have little or no furnishings, the ticket includes free headphones and a ‘histopad’ (an iPad-like digital tablet with a touch-screen). Using a 3D virtual reality, various rooms are reconstructed to show how they might have looked back in the day. I’d not used one before but it worked really well and we enjoyed it.
We even enjoyed the kids’ game where you find and unlock a treasure in each room. We unexpectedly found ourselves getting quite into it.
The highlight is climbing the 121-foot-tall keep. With four stories, it’s a steep and relentless climb. The massive timber beams between floors are gone so it’s an empty space in the centre. It feels a little free-fall. I’m not fond of heights and felt a little wobbly at times. If heights are definitely not your thing, then this is not for you. Making it to the top is rewarding, with sweeping views of the surrounding valley.
Another point of interest is the iron cage designed by Louis XI to keep prisoners in maximum discomfort. Why he felt the need to have prisoners who were already locked in a small stone cell inside a medieval dungeon, further confined by being locked inside a metal cube is puzzling. He is supposed to have had Cardinal La Balue locked in the cage for 11 years. It was all very disturbing.

翻译：洛什·邓戎是皇家城市建筑群的一部分。该建筑群坐落在高耸的岩石露头之上，周围环绕着中世纪的城墙和城墙，包括邓戎、皇家城堡和圣乌尔斯教堂（内有阿格尼丝·索雷尔的墓地）。
您可以在院内漫步并免费参观教堂，但如果您不进入地牢和城堡，您将错过很多东西。这是一张单次入场券，物超所值，两者合计 10.50 欧元。
这是我见过的保存最完好的塔楼地牢之一。非常令人印象深刻。
虽然房间里几乎没有家具，但门票包括免费耳机和“histopad”（一种类似 iPad 的带触摸屏的数字平板电脑）。使用 3D 虚拟现实，可以重建各个房间，以展示它们在过去的样子。我以前没有用过，但效果很好，我们很喜欢。
我们甚至喜欢孩子们玩的游戏，在每个房间里找到并解锁宝藏。我们意外地发现自己对此很着迷。
亮点是攀登 121 英尺高的城堡主楼。城堡主楼有四层，非常陡峭，需要不停地攀登。楼层之间的巨大木梁已经不见了，所以中间是一片空地。感觉有点像自由落体。我不喜欢高处，有时感觉有点摇晃。如果你绝对不喜欢高处，那么这里不适合你。爬到顶部很有成就感，可以一览周围山谷的壮丽景色。
另一个有趣的地方是路易十一设计的铁笼，可以让囚犯感到极度不适。为什么他觉得有必要把已经被锁在中世纪地牢里的小石牢里的囚犯锁在一个金属立方体里，让他们更加痛苦，这令人费解。据说他把红衣主教拉巴吕关在笼子里 11 年。这一切都非常令人不安。
