It's not free to enter. I didnt ask about the price, i only stood at the entry and took this photo. It's all you can do for free?

We were there for the Brocante Market, which was well stocked and well laid-out. Very lovely grounds, beautiful castle and the restaurant had a great atmosphere, befitting the castle. Attentive friendly and helpful staff despite the overload in clients due to the event. Will visit the castle and grounds again to take a look inside and sample the restaurant some more.

Original idea to go through this castle on your own pace and with an audio tour. When we visited, we were the only visitors and our kids really enjoyed the tour and the mysterious atmosphere. Definitely worth a visit!

Lovely privately owned castle that can be visited most days of the week. The current owners actually live here and are in the ever ongoing proces of restoring it. Tickets van be bought at the restaurant near the castle, you actually get a key to the front gate ..... a special touch.

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.
