Four walls to see with few pictures on it. Not worth the money.

Try to take your time. Ignore the tourist groups and wait for the place to go empty.

Not that much to see, it's a really small house. The old carvings makes it interesting though.

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.
