The bats of the château

Come and take advantage of a beautiful summer evening to meet the bats of the Domaine national du Château de Coucy. Immerse yourself in the surprising atmosphere of the remains of one of the most remarkable fortresses of the medieval West in the 13th century, as night falls for an exceptional nature evening!

Discovering the world of bats, these small, fragile and harmless mammals, is fascinating. Also known as "chiropterans", which means "those who fly with their hands", these nocturnal species are the only truly flying mammals. You'll plunge into their captivating world thanks to an entertaining presentation, before meeting these little-known and endangered species in the castle's meanders.

The Centre des Monuments Nationaux has teamed up with the Coeur de Picard tourist office and the Conservatoire des Espaces Naturels des Hauts-de-France to offer you an evening in the heart of the monument to learn all about bats!
