About 10km inland from Tréguier, on a heavily wooded slope above the Trieux river, stands the fifteenth-century Château de la Roche-Jagu (daily: Easter–June & Sept–Oct 10.30am–12.30pm & 2–6pm; July & Aug 10am–7pm; park access free, Château €4, or more during special exhibitions). It's a gorgeous building – a harmonious combination of fortress and home – and plays host to lavish annual exhibitions, usually on some sort of Celtic theme. The rooms within are bare, but if you climb to the top, you can admire the beautiful woodwork of the restored eaves, and walk the two long indoor galleries, offering tremendous views over the river.
