Surrounded by a fairy tale forest, Château de Chambord is a wonderland packed with half a millennium of French history and unique architectural details like a double-spiral staircase and design elements attributed to Leonardo da Vinci.
Welcome to the largest and most majestic château in the Loire Valley. This landmark building is an architectural triumph that remains a symbol of the French Renaissance in Europe, and throughout the world.
In the 16th century, the king delighted in inviting his circle to Château de Chambord, and with a visit, you can understand why – with more than 400 rooms, 77 staircases, 282 fireplaces, and over 200 chimneys, this luxurious venue is impressive.
There's more to be explored outside. Rent a boat to row on the château's canal, or take a walking trail to see the diverse fauna and flora in the surrounding forest.
