Origin and history

Cercamp Castle is a monument located in the commune of Frévent, in the Hauts-de-France region. Although its existence is attested, the available sources do not specify its period of construction or its architectural or historical evolution. Such monuments, often linked to local history, could serve as seigneurial residences, defence sites or symbols of power.

In the Hauts-de-France, as elsewhere, their presence generally reflected the feudal or post-feudal organization, with a rural economy dominated by agriculture and structured social relations around lords, peasants and artisans.
