Description
Château d'Azay-le-Rideau
| The ticket includes |
 Priority access to the castle |
| Visit of the castle |
| Visit of the park |
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.

The Château de Villandry is located in western Touraine. It is the last château on the Loire to have been rebuilt. The interiors of the Château de Villandry are remarkable for the quality of their furnishings, the multitude of paintings and the refinement of their period decoration. But what really makes this château a must-see are its French-style gardens, which have been completely restored, and which are the source of the site's reputation today. Meticulously tended, with a focus on sustainable development and rational management to limit the use of chemicals and allow the plants to reveal all their natural beauty. Close to where the Cher and Loire rivers meet, Villandry promises some wonderful surprises.

The royal fortress of Chinon is located at a once strategic point, at the crossroads of the provinces of Anjou, Poitou and Touraine. A site used since ancient times, the fortress has been converted over the centuries to meet the needs and comforts of kings. Discover this monument with a rich history, which has seen many great figures in French history pass through its walls, including Joan of Arc. Recently restored, the fortress of Chinon is a different place from the great châteaux of the Loire, but one not to be missed!
