May we delete the fourth image, at bottom, which adds no visual information not better presented in other images? --Wetman 21:36, 2 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

I agree, however, I will refrain from selecting which images should be kept for this article to avoid the apearance of bias, given that I took one of the pictures. PieCam 21:53, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Deleting an outdated image shouldn't be any more heartrending than updating text. --Wetman 22:49, 3 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Donjon interior accesible by the public???

I have been to the castle 3 times now, and have each time been disappointed, despite in one case writing to the chief archaeologist 2 months in advance! Can we now go inside the donjon and see this unique structure? does anybody know the status for Spring 2007? CJ DUB 21:52, 21 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It will be open to the public Mai 17th 2007.

Merci, I got some great pictures and visited all the floors. CJ DUB 19:33, 30 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Other interesting info

Mata Hari was executed here, Henry V died here, Generalissimo Maurice Gamelin made this his French military HQ in WW2, and I think that the Marquis de Sade was imprisoned here. Bokononist (talk) 22:57, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pun discussion

Regarding the interesting "(Je rendrai Vincennes quand on me rendra ma jambe, with a polysemic pun in French that is lost in translation).", would it be possible to actually provide an explanation or a reference to an explanation? If there is indeed a polysemic pun, which looking around the internet I have begun to doubt... Cangelis (talk) 08:35, 15 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
