Picturesque, very beautiful in summer, a little less so in winter, there are several bars and a small open-air café, Grandma's Soup Kitchen, where you can enjoy some homemade crepes.

The Château de Villandry, whose construction began in the 16th century, is particularly known for its gardens, which cover more than six hectares spread over four levels. The castle is perfectly maintained and can be visited year-round, but it is for its gardens that Villandry is a must-see.

View of the Loire River

Highlight • Viewpoint

Excellent viewpoint over the wild Loire on the Loire à Vélo between Villandry and Bréhémont. You can see the Langeais bridge, an Eiffel bridge.

Langeais Bridge

Highlight • Bridge

The Langeais bridge is an Eiffel bridge... Like the tower of the same name and the same engineer! It is both very resistant and fragile in winter if it freezes at -10°C. It may be closed during periods of severe frost. This bridge crosses the Loire offering superb views of the river and its surroundings.

Château de Langeais

Highlight • Castle

The Château de Langeais is a former royal estate built by Louis XI in the 15th century. It replaced the old fortified castle built at the end of the 10th century by the Count of Anjou Foulques Nerra.

Now open to the public, you can visit fifteen rooms furnished with richly sculpted medieval furniture. There is also a collection of tapestries and the reconstruction of the royal wedding of Anne de Bretagne. The gardens are also open to the public.

The castle has been classified as a historical monument since 1922.

A very sheltered, family-friendly outing. A secondary road with very little traffic. A great picnic area at La Sablonnière is perfect for enjoying the open-air café and its refreshing drinks.
