Villandry is a Renaissance castle, located in the heart of three levels of tiered gardens. It is the last of the great Renaissance castles built on the banks of the Loire. Remarkable for the harmony of its architecture and its gardens, the site is best known for its gardens, spread over three levels, which combine aesthetics, diversity and harmony.

The Château de Langeais, both a fortress and a princely residence, conceals multiple treasures: sculpted furniture, rich hangings, objects of art recall the life of the great lords. The reconstruction of the secret marriage of Charles VIII and Anne of Brittany which marks the attachment of the duchy to the crown of France and the remains of the oldest stone keep located in the heart of the park take you back to the times of the Middle Ages.

Built in 1527, the castle of Azay-le-Rideau is a marvel of grace and whiteness, dominated by turrets which still recall the medieval era. Built partially on the Indre, this jewel has one of the first staircases with a straight banister - Italian style -, a decor and furniture of great richness which are distinguished by exceptional quality and a magnificent set of tapestries from the 16th and 17th centuries. Around the building, an 8 ha English-style park was created from 1810. Azay-le-Rideau is also home to the Château de l'Islette, which housed the loves of Camille Claudel and Rodin
