Châteaudun Castle

Highlight • Castle

The castle overlooks the Loir River from a height of 60 meters. It comprises elements from different periods, blending medieval, Gothic, and Renaissance architectural styles.

Imposing, especially when viewed from below, this castle served as a princely residence in the 12th, 15th, and 16th centuries. A visit will reveal a well-preserved and beautifully presented interior.

Château de Châteaudun

Highlight • Historical Site

The castle is already impressive, with the size, the location and the incredible "wall". It is the residence of a faithful companion to Joan of Arc. John of Dunois, known as "Bastard of Orleans" and half-brother of King Charles VI, transformed the old Feudalburg into a bright, comfortable apartment and added the Holy Chapel. His grandson, Francis II of Orleans-Longueville, extended the castle with a Renaissance-style wing, which heralded the great castles of the Loire Valley. The work began around 1450, but were completed in 1530.
