RE: Prison escape in a book chest: The story of Loevestein castle

I love these kinds of places. Touring the buildings that have been the scene of events we know from books is fascinating. I can already see myself there imagining who could have sat and looked out of that small window, or as you say, feeling the emotion of stepping on the same bridge that Hugo escaped over. The castle is very different from those seen in Spain, but like all of them it is a fortress that seems impregnable... although it is not. It looks very well preserved and restored. I agree in valuing the educational message of tolerance and dialogue as weapons, museums do a fundamental work to understand the past that led to our present. Thank you for bringing us closer to this chapter of history.
