The building comes to life for the castle nights and highlights the artistic, musical and cultural dimension in a medieval setting. A symbolic place steeped in history in the town of Nieul-lès-Saintes To see if you are passing through (or living) in the region

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.
