A private but open castle for visit. Entrance requires a visit to the guardians house and paying 3 euros to enter. The entrance is somewhat confusing as the signage is misleading. Just go through (if unlocked) and follow the signs to the guardians house. He'll explain everything (as long as you can find him). The castle itself is an interesting place. A supplied pamphlet explains the history and you can explore much of the castle though the walls are sealed/closed off. A Tower is explorable and you can go to the top though needs further restoration. Its not a bad castle and very scenic but needs more restoration really to highlight its history. Right now it looks like its been restored to a state where it can be hired out for functions.

A surprising place! And friendly owners! The ruins are maintained and can be visited. Our children (6 and 7 years old) loved it. 3€/adult

Château du Lude

The Château du Lude is one of the many great châteaux of the Loire Valley in France. Le Lude is the most northerly château of the Loire Valley and one of the last important historic castles in France, still inhabited by the same family for the last 260 years. The château is testimony to four centuries of French architecture, as a stronghold transformed into an elegant house during the Renaissance and the 18th century. The monument is located in the valley of Le Loir. Its gardens have evolved throughout the centuries.
