Château de Robert le Diable is also known as Château de Moulineaux, which might be a bit more appropriate - the castle is situated close to the village of Moulineaux, Normandy, but the connection to the legendary (and rather mythical) Robert le Diable (Robert the Devil) is far less certain.

Robert le Diable was supposedly the son of the Devil according to a medieval legend - and some identified him with Robert le Magnifique, the father of William the Conqueror. However there is no historical evidence connecting him to this building. The castle was built in the 11th and 12th century, but a lot of its currents looks comes from a rebuild and enlargement of it made 1200-1203 after a struggle between king John of England and Philip II Augustus of France.

The castle was destroyed by the French during the Hundred Years War so that the English should not be able to use it. It was partly restored in 1905 by Lucien Lefort and is now listed as a Monument Historique.
