A tower that was deliberately sawn off. Yes, really. During this loop through Montrichard Val de Cher, you'll climb to the ruins of the Château de Montrichard. With views over the Cher, it's as if you were ruling the region yourself. Only... that keep didn't collapse. It was deliberately lowered by Henry IV. Impressive. A magnificent view.

Today the chateau functions as a hotel/restaurant – nice surroundings, good food, very friendly staff, and still at acceptable prices.

After some searching we found the new location of Mon Jardin and we certainly did not regret it! The food is still very tasty, the service is warm and caring and the price/quality is very good. You can go there for a cup of coffee with something tasty or possibly also for lunch. Lots of vegetables, also in combination with meat or fish. They also have a small terrace with a view of the river Le Cher.

Nice view of the village crossing the bridge, with the castle and Museums of Montrichard in the distance. The castle is an 11th century fortress, now a museum.

This mysterious building located on an island in the middle of the Cher is the Moulin Fort de Chisseaux. It was built in the 16th century by Adam de Hodon XVI and purchased by Diane de Poitiers, favorite of King Henry II for 20 years. It was then taken over by Catherine de Medici in 1560 upon the death of the king. Becoming a tan mill in 1825, it was quickly dismantled in 1840 and abandoned for many years before being restored in 1920 by the Menier family, owners of the Château de Chenonceau. It is today private property.
