Some castles in the Loire Valley worth a visit


We recommend some castles in the Loire Valley that really are worth a visit. Below is a non-exhaustive list of tourist sites not far from the Château des Sept Tours:

Amboise Castle: This legendary monument and its landscaped gardens offer one of the most magnificent views over the Loire Valley. It is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

Each tour of the castle gives you an interesting look at this important place in French history: its political and artistic influence throughout Europe during the Renaissance, the private lives of the sovereigns, everyday life and behind the scenes at Court.
