La chapelle est malheureusement fermée pour travaux, mais rien que pour la vue, il faut monter là-haut!

Eher ein kleines Ausflugsziel für die Durchreise, aber lohnenswert. die Kapelle hat eine interessante Geschichte. Die Außenmauern sind bereits 1000 Jahre alt. Einfaches kostenloses Parken 50m entfernt. Man hat einen tollen Ausblick auf die unten liegende Stadt.

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.
