Very secure entry. Covid passes required from all visitors. It was quite quiet as the tourist season is winding down, but very easy to navigate through.

One of my favorite places I've ever been. The castle is great, walking the ramparts is awesome, and provides endless amazing photo opportunities, and I just love the feel of being in the walled city.
