Summary[edit]

Description

Fougères (Ille-et-Vilaine)

La forteresse. Façade nord-est.

De droite à gauche:

- La tour du Gobelin ou des Gobelins (XIIe - XIIIe). Un énorme donjon proche fut rasé en 1166 par le roi d'Angleterre, Henri II Plantagenet. Raoul II, baron de Fougères, ne reconstruit pas le donjon, mais éleva à proximité en 1173, la tour du Gobelin. Jeanne de Fougères acheva le sommet de la tour. La tour du Gobelin possèdait un four à pain dit «four de la duchesse Anne».

- La partie supérieure de la tour Mélusine (seconde moitié du XIIIe). La construction de cette tour relève de la période des constructions dues à Jeanne de Fougères (1256 - 1313). Dans "Quatrevingt Treize", Victor Hugo s'inspirera de la Tour Mélusine dans sa description de la Tourgue et, également dans un lavis de 1875*.

- La tourelle de Guibé, construite sous Jeanne de Fougères.

- La tour de Coigny qui date de la fin du XIIe.

- La grosse tour de Guémadeuc (XIIe).

- Et une partie de la tour carrée de la Haye-Saint-Hilaire (fin XIIe).


Tout à fait à droite, une partie de la poterne.


  • Dans ses carnets, Hugo note à la date du 30 mai 1876 : « J’ai fait pour le 93 illustré le dessin de la Tourgue en ruine ». Le nom du héros de "Quatrevingt Treize", Gauvain, correspond au nom de famille de Juliette Drouet qui était née à Fougères. Hugo avait visité la ville en 1876 et c'est le souvenir de la tour Mélusine qui lui servira pour la description du château du marquis de Lantenac.
