SCARAMOUCHE

Demonstrations and an introduction to stage fencing with the Scaramouche Company.

L’INTERLUDE

Since Ascension Day weekend is a busy time at the Royal Castle, we encourage you to purchase your tickets in advance on our website: they serve as skip-the-line passes, allowing you to enter the site more quickly. Early morning and late afternoon (starting at 5 p.m.) are also quieter times—take advantage of them! We look forward to welcoming you.
