    The construction of the Château d'Ussé began in the 15th century. Its architecture is original because it is based on a double inspiration: medieval and Renaissance.

    Accompanied by French gardens, a chapel and stables, the Château d'Ussé can be visited all year round.

        Here you are in front of the 'Sleeping Beauty Castle'.
        Once upon a time there was a castle with a magical aura, overlooking the Indre and the Loire… so beautiful that it inspired Charles Perrault to write his Sleeping Beauty.


        Young and old, immerse yourself in castle life and the scenes from this fairy tale come to life before your eyes. Follow in the footsteps of Vauban, Perrault, Chateaubriand, Le Nôtre and the Blacas family, who still live in this illustrious castle in the Loire Valley.
