A great experience! Never seen a church this old I think. Special feature is the bell tower situated on a hill rising over the bend of the river and parts of the village a hundred metres from the church itself.

Very interesting. It's good that such things are taken care of and that you can experience history in this way.

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.
