That's all what's left...
Built around 1123 by Henry I Beauclerc, Duke of Normandy and King of England (son of William de Conqueror), its construction made Vire one of the most significant strongholds in Normandy. The castle was slighted by order of Richelieu in 1630.

The ruins of the quadrangular tower are still impressive. The western facade is notable for its powerful flat buttresses, windows and fireplaces visible over three stories with traces of defensive structures.
