"Guedelon Castle is a project started in 1997 by Michel Guyot and
Maryline Martin in the Burgundy region of France. The castle is styled
on typical French medieval chateau-fort, modeled on designs from the
13th century, and is being built using techniques and materials
available to masons and builders 800 years ago. The Guedelon project has
now become a tourist destination, and employs dozens of workers. The
castle is due to be completed in 2023."
Great to see an update on this impressive retro engineering project.
Looks like it's coming along nicely!
