    On the horizon, when the weather is clear, you can see the silhouette of the Château de Ussé. This fairytale castle has a magical appearance that overlooks the Indre and the Loire. It is so beautiful that it inspired Charles Perrault for his Sleeping Beauty.

    Triggered? Drive there and you will end up in a fairytale world.

    Young and old, immerse yourself in castle life and the scenes from this fairytale 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.

      The Château d'Ussé is one of the many châteaux of the Loire Valley that are open to visitors, even though it is a private estate. As you stand on the banks of the river, you can see the fortress rising up in the distance, on the left bank of the Indre.
