Tips from the Community

Fabrice Rigalleau
July 20, 2024, Château de Montreuil-Bellay and Historic Town

Montreuil, or small monastery, and Bellay, named after Lord Berlay installed in 1025 by Foulque de Nerra, founder of the rich province of Anjou, has been a walled town since the 13th century. Located at the crossroads of Anjou, Touraine and Poitou, the city became a strategic and commercial issue from the Middle Ages. This interest is reflected in the construction of fortified enclosures. A first belt (11th century), direct protection of the castle, is completed by an impressive rampart (13th century) encompassing the upper and lower towns, while a third enclosure ensures control of the ford. Six monumental gates, four of which still exist, were opened by the lords of Harcourt. These great builders endowed Montreuil-Bellay with exceptional architecture, which characterizes the appearance of the town even today: tuffeau lacework on the facades of the houses, the bossage of the towers of the Porte Saint-Jean, the tangle of the roofs of the house of the castle, turreted manors, castle chapel turned collegiate church, castles, Saint-Jean hospital... The 15th century is undoubtedly the golden century of Montreuil-Bellay, which can now be discovered in this preserved setting.

A must-see among the castles of the Loire, that of Montreuil-Bellay is very impressive, although less known, with its 15 defense towers and its 600 meters of ramparts. Fully furnished and inhabited by the same family since 1822, the castle located on a rocky promontory can be visited. Just like the gardens, suspended above the Thouet. From the ramparts, you will have a breathtaking view of the vineyards of the château's wine estate.

Beautiful town with castle and majestic ramparts, located in the heart of the Loire-Anjou-Touraine regional natural park on the edge of the Thouet. In the heart of the Saumur vineyards, Montreuil-Bellay is the perfect place to visit cellars and taste regional wines.

10-hectare body of water on the cycle route of the Thouet Valley. Swimming prohibited but you can cycle around it.
