This region southwest of Paris takes its name from France's longest river, the Loire. During the Renaissance, the Loire Valley was a favorite retreat of the French kings and their court, who left us numerous castles of admirable architectural elegance.
Amboise Castle is the result of successive military constructions since the 2nd century, due to its elevation and strategic location in the Loire region. It was Charles VIII who transformed the site into an undisputed royal castle, already under the influence of various Italian artists.
It is said that the design of the Château de Chambord, built by King Francis I in the 16th century, was heavily influenced by the arrival of Leonardo da Vinci. After its completion, the kings did not use the castle for very long, and it was subsequently used by other nobles and military figures.
Chenonceau Castle (16th century), also known as the Castle of the Seven Ladies, was occupied by queens and mistresses of kings during the Renaissance, including Catherine de Medici, Diane de Poitiers (mistress of Henry II), and the widow of Henry III, leading it to be named as such.
Owned by the Crown and later a royal residence, the Château de Chenonceau, one of the most famous castles in the Loire Valley, is a testament to an exquisite art of living, due to its original design, the richness of its collections, furnishings and decoration, as well as its history, since it was loved, managed and protected by extraordinary women who left their mark on history.
