The château de Blandy-les-Tours is a medieval fortress situated in Seine-et-Marne, France. It was built between the 13th and 14th centuries and was restored in the early 21st century. The castle is an excellent example of medieval military architecture, featuring towers, ramparts, and a keep. The Château de Blandy-les-Tours has a long and varied history. It has served as a simple fortified manor, a stronghold during the Hundred Years' War, a Renaissance residential castle, and the Tower Farm. The castle has been owned by prestigious families throughout its history.
Today, the site is open to the public and offers guided tours, allowing visitors to discover its history and architectural charms.
On a large touch screen, visitors can manipulate a digital twin of the castle in real-time 3D. They can navigate between different time periods and view changes, whether they involve construction or destruction.The castle is represented in seven key periods of its existence.
A 3D graphic artist, specialized in reproducing historical monuments, meticulously modeled the castle based on archives, photos, plans, and other sources. The company responsible for this work is Héritage Virtuel. The project involved several teams, including historians, archaeologists, 3D modelers, and developers.
Da Viking Code developed the real-time 3D experience (on PC). Users can rotate around the castle, zoom in, and access informative maps about the building's uses, as well as an ancestry tree of all the lords of Blandy.
The touch table is available in the castle's permanent exhibition room.
The project's main challenge was to represent the castle in seven different periods and gather all the necessary data to complete the task.
