A beautiful castle, only everyone has forgotten about it. Except that they mow once a year

A mighty castle, it's a shame because it's visibly collapsing ?

An extremely beautiful castle, it's a shame that it is slowly falling into disrepair. The surroundings should be tidied up a bit.

Very beautiful (unspoilt) nature. The vicinity of Vesela Gora (God's 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.
