The most famous of the Loire castles and symbol of the French Renaissance throughout the world, Chambord was built for King François I in the 16th century.
The Domaine national de Chambord has been a UNESCO world heritage site since 1981. Its 5,440 hectare park has the same surface area as the city of Paris intra muros. It has also been a national wildlife and hunting reserve since 1947.
Here you have a beautiful view of the north facade of the castle. Its architecture is extraordinary and its size impressive.
