Château de Villandry

Château de Villandry

Château de Villandry is the last of the great châteaux built during the Renaissance in the Loire Valley. Laid out in the shelter of a hillside on the Loire, it is simply a beautiful place of peace and harmony where it is pleasant just to wander around.

Château de Cheverny

Château de Cheverny

Inhabited by the same family for more than six centuries, the Château de Cheverny was built as a residence, not a fortress. The interior decoration showcases the luxury of the 17th century rather than the earlier periods that you will see in many of the Loire castles.
