Nice church, but very dark inside. A lamp would not be out of place. Half the church was arranged as an exhibition of various vestments from the church culture. Nice to see, definitely worth it. Nice atmosphere further in the church, to take a moment of peace for yourself.

Always open from 09.00 to 18.00

Open to the public. Standard Catholic church though not as "luxurious" as others.

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.
