We found these ruins while walking comfortably, ancient remains of a small chapel, to be seen in passing.

Very beautiful remains from the 11th and 12th centuries Too bad that descriptions and explanations are missing for a building that is nevertheless classified as a historic monument.

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.
