Château-Renault

Highlight • Castle

This small fortified town has its origins in the middle of the 11th century. It was at this time that the castle was built. It will be reworked several times thereafter, notably during the Hundred Years War.

The town thus developed over the centuries. It experienced strong development in the 19th century thanks to the tannery industry, making Château-Renault the city of leather.

Since then, the old industries have been converted. The city has a rich medieval and industrial heritage to discover by admiring its castle and visiting the tannery museum.
