Sergio Herrera (3 years ago)
Although it is a historic tower in the city with the restoration of the sheet that they have put on it, they have taken away the charm of the historical monument
Mauricio G.R. (3 years ago)
In this place a castle was built with a square tower, crowned with battlements where the remains of the machicolations still remain in its four corners and four walls, the main pointed access door and a large patio. It would be part of a medieval fortress of which only this watchtower would remain on the road from Arcos to Jerez.

Beautiful, although it is in very bad condition, it is a shame.
Fabiana Melgarejo (4 years ago)
It cannot be visited because it is in full restoration. Which seems necessary to me.
Antonio Garcia Prats (4 years ago)
It is a pity that it cannot be visited and is open to the public

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.
