Chateau de Guedelon, Treigny, Burgundy, France

Great Tower or Tour Maitresse, Chapel Tower and Corner Tower (left-right), still under construction, at the Chateau de Guedelon, a castle built since 1997 using only medieval materials and processes, photographed in 2017, in Treigny, Yonne, Burgundy, France. In the foreground is the stone quarry with cut stones arranged in piles from which the building is constructed. The Guedelon project was begun in 1997 by Michel Guyot, owner of the nearby Chateau de Saint-Fargeau, with architect Jacques Moulin. It is an educational and scientific project with the aim of understanding medieval building techniques and the chateau should be completed in the 2020s. Picture by Manuel Cohen
