Built during the reign of François I by Gilles Berthelot, the king's financier, the Château d'Azay-le-Rideau is a subtle blend of French traditions and innovative decoration from Italy. It became an icon of the new art of building in the Loire Valley in the 16th century, and is now considered one of the jewels of early French Renaissance architecture.
Although its two wings were built in the early years of the 16th century, it was in the 19th century that the château took on the form we know today. As such, Azay-le-Rideau should be appreciated both as an architectural jewel of the 16th century and as a representative example of 19th-century taste for Renaissance art. It was also during this period that the landscaped park that surrounds it today was designed as a veritable showcase of greenery.
