Above, a view of the church and the château at Saint-Aignan in the Loir-et-Cher. I took the photo in July 2004, about a year after we came to live here. Our house is less that two miles from the château.
Below, a slightly closer view of just the château. It stands on the left bank of the Cher river about 35 miles west of the city of Tours. It was built between the 10th and 16th centuries (another July 2004 photo).
I wonder how many rooms they actually use, to live in?
ReplyDeleteNot many. That's my impression.
DeleteHave you ever been in the chateau?
ReplyDeleteNo, I've never been inside.
DeleteLike Yogi Berra, ‘it’s so famous, no one goes there.’

DeleteSince 2003, when we came to live here, Saint-Aignan's château has never been open to the public, not even for a fee.
