    The Château d'Amboise was confiscated from Louis d'Amboise after he had participated in a plot. From 1433 the castle of Amboise served as a home for several kings. Today, the Château d'Amboise can be visited and it is famous for its fortifications and the breathtaking view it offers over the Loire Valley.

    Very beautiful chateau with a magnificent view over the Loire. Spiral staircase unique in Europe which allowed carriages and horses to climb!

    The royal castle of Amboise is probably one of the castles which offers the most beautiful panorama on the Loire.

    Built in the heart of the city, the castle took a considerable place when it became a royal residence. Indeed, from the 15th century, Charles VIII, Louis XII and François 1er will succeed each other there. The latter also invites Leonardo da Vinci, who will live not far from the castle, at Clos Lucé.

    Today, the castle is open to the public. More information here: chateau-amboise.com.
