The couple are believed to be originally from Normandy and visiting the castle on a trip
A French couple in their early thirties were allegedly having sex at a historic castle and fell from a 40-foot height and into a moat, where they both died.
The couple was paying a visit to the Vauban Fort on the island of Chausey Archipelago when apparently, the mood struck. Authorities say they believe the man and woman — both in their 30s — decided to have sex in part of the castle roughly four stories off the ground, according to the Independant.
The Daily Mail reports that the man was found in the morning in a dried out part of the moat, and his partner was found later in the afternoon in water that was 1.5 metres deep. The couple's belongings were found at the top of the castle ramparts 40ft above where they were found.
The paper adds that the granite fort was built in 1866 by Napoleon III as defence against English warships.
