The article talks as though the town (NOT village) was built within a castle: completely untrue. It was one of the many towns and cities fortified by Vauban, as that article shows - ie that the original village walls were strengthened to give the citizens of the town greater protection against attack by local rebels. I have visited the place, but know little else about it, although the article here gives a great deal more. I am sure someone can make a better stab at it than at present!
