The Coucy Castle drawing with the letters showing the parts; i posted the version without letters some time ago.
Is it better to edit posts & add images, or to make more posts? Well, it’s a fun drawing anyway 🙂 despite wonly perspective!

Artist Eugène Viollet-le-Duc (1814 – 1879) was known for his reconstructions of mediæval French ruins; Coucy, shown here, however, was not a ruin until German Soldiers left it towards the end of WOrld War I, and demolished most of it, 15 years after this drawing was made.
The perspective on the top of the tower makes me slightly uneasy 🙂
Floor plan to follow in a few days.
