GUIDED TOUR OF THE CHÂTEAU DE CHAUMONT-SUR-LOIRE
Set in landscaped grounds, the Château de Chaumont overlooks the Loire and the charming Loire village. Formerly the property of Catherine de Médicis in 1552 and of her rival Diane de Poitiers, in 1875 the Princesse de Broglie acquired it and turned it into a truly modern princely residence.
FREE VISIT TO THE INTERNATIONAL GARDEN FESTIVAL
Every year, around twenty teams of landscape gardeners from all over the world present their vision of the theme chosen by the estate. Their expression is often original and unexpected, using flowers, materials, water, trees and foliage.
