LE TERTRE-GANNE

  • Remarkable view / panorama / highlight
53270 Sainte-Suzanne
A rocky promontory facing the medieval town of Sainte-Suzanne, with a fine panoramic view of the fortress.
During the Hundred Years' War, it was from Le Tertre-Ganne that English bombardment batteries breached the ramparts. In the 1950s, the site did not look wooded. Until then, it had been a stone quarry. Legend has it that Tertre-Ganne is named after Gannelon, a former companion of Charlemagne whose treachery is recounted in the Song of Roland.
