    The Château de Langeais is a former royal estate built by Louis XI in the 15th century. It replaced the old fortified castle built at the end of the 10th century by the Count of Anjou Foulques Nerra.

    Now open to the public, you can visit fifteen rooms furnished with richly sculpted medieval furniture. There is also a collection of tapestries and the reconstruction of the royal wedding of Anne de Bretagne. The gardens are also open to the public.

    The castle has been classified as a historical monument since 1922.
