L'Islette Castle

Highlight • Castle

The Château de l'Islette's architecture is reminiscent of the Château de Azay-le-Rideau. Completed around 1530, it has always been maintained in perfect condition.
Less renowned than the surrounding Loire Valley châteaux, the Château de l'Islette can be visited from early May to late September, both inside and out. It is also possible to rent boats to cruise the Indre River or participate in an escape game inside the château.

Azay-le-Rideau Mill

Highlight • Other

Nestled on the banks of the Indre, a stone's throw from the city center and the castle,
this beautiful 16th century mill visible from the bridge which spans an arm of the Indre, downstream from the castle, the Azay le Rideau mill is one of the 18 mills of the Indre in the country of Azay.
It is made up of a central bow body and has a 17th century frame.
A dam completes the whole.

Opening of La Poule D’Ô
on June 22, 2022, La Poule D’Ô moves to the mill
the mill is preparing to revive with a restaurant during the summer.
Simon Desiles and Eleanor Thomas, at the head of the gourmet restaurant L'Aigle d'Or, have taken over the management of the mill, to offer a gourmet and cultural space.

The Château de Villandry, whose construction began in the 16th century, is particularly known for its gardens, which cover more than six hectares spread over four levels. The castle is perfectly maintained and can be visited year-round, but it is for its gardens that Villandry is a must-see.

Langeais Old Town

Highlight (Segment) • Other

The small town of Langeais is centrally placed in the Loire Valley region, about 20 kilometres west of Tours and on the Loire River.

It falls in the eastern part of the Regional Natural Parc of Loire-Anjou-Touraine.

Although most visited because of the Chateau de Langeais, which is in the centre of this quiet town, there are also several other highlights of interest when you visit. However the castle is of course the 'unmissable' site of interest here and a good place to start your tour.

The castle has its origins in the 10th century, although like many chateaux in the region it was substantially rebuilt and remodelled in the 15th century, and most of what you see today dates from the reconstruction that took place in the 1460's for King Louis XI.

Langeais Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Langeais bridge is an Eiffel bridge... Like the tower of the same name and the same engineer! It is both very resistant and fragile in winter if it freezes at -10°C. It may be closed during periods of severe frost. This bridge crosses the Loire offering superb views of the river and its surroundings.
