It's a cool looking ruin, easily accessible and great for a daily dose of walking. Kids can visit as well, because there is no climbing of any sort unless you really want to. Interior can be seen as well, just not entire year, sadly I missed that part. Some work is also being done on the exterior at the time of writing this review, so beware of that as well. Overall, will definitely visit again someday.

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.
