Château de Azay-le-Ridau

Castle Châteaux of the Loire Valley, France

The reason why Honoré de Balzac compared the castle of Azay-le-Rideau to “a diamond cut into facets by the Indre” is that this house floods with light thanks to its dazzling splendour. Even its body of water is caressed by the reflection of its refined forms and by the grace of its Renaissance architecture. This jewel of a castle is immersed in the romantic atmosphere of a landscaped park, caressed by the waters of the Indre and by the murmur of the wind in the fronds of its large trees. Renovated and meticulously cared for, the castle of Azay-le-Rideau reserves tender moments of poetry for you.
