Come and discover the Touraine in d'Azay-le-rideau. A pleasant centre has nice terraces to stay for a while. Discover the Château d'Azay-le-rideau and the park in English style and relax on the banks of the Indre on the island by the waterfall.

The origins of the castle Do you know the story of this castle that stands on a small island in the Indre? Built during the reign of Francis I by Gilles Berthelot, the king's financier, the Château d'Azay-le-Rideau is a subtle combination of French traditions and innovative Italian decorations. It became an icon of the new architecture in the Loire Valley in the 16th century and is today considered one of the jewels of the architecture of the first French Renaissance.

A few small difficult passages (thick mud, stony descent, etc.), it's a good mountain bike route.

The circuit itself is certainly nice to cycle. Perhaps better to park a few kilometres further on at Château de l'Islette if you drive here. Parking is free there.

Nice to visit if you don't have much time to visit other castles in the Loire region. There are certainly some that are more beautiful to see, have nicer gardens and also show more history on the inside. You can better go to Château de Villandry. There you really get more value for your money.
