ドンジー・ル・ナショナルのおすすめライド

Found the garden more interesting than the interior of the castle.

Toilet on site, water point, the best!

Very pleasant track, slightly monotonous but it's great

Perfect for taking a short break, water point nearby

The residence of the Marquis d'Huxelles, built between 1606 and 1625, is home to the most sumptuous Louis XIII apartment preserved in France. Fireplaces, ceilings and wood panelling were painted, carved and gilded with sumptuous exuberance for the favourite of Queen Marie de Medici. Paintings, tapestries and period furniture complete this seductive evocation of "château life" at the time of the "Three Musketeers". The tour also reveals a monumental stone staircase (20 metres high), an 18th century kitchen and the opulent 1900s salons of an opera director. The garden, in the spirit of the Baroque period, offers 12 hectares of flowerbeds, a large boxwood labyrinth with aviary-belvedere, vegetable garden, green theatre, water features and remarkable trees.

Superb little town, all shops and services.

Saint-Gengoux-le-National owes its medieval town to the dual supervision exercised by the Abbey of Cluny and by King Louis VII from the 12th century. Walking through the streets of this city is a real pleasure, it has managed to preserve its urban, architectural and landscape heritage.

This castle from the beginning of the 17th century can be visited, both for its gardens and for its interior. You will notably discover a monumental stone staircase and a well-preserved Louis XIII apartment. Outside, a large boxwood labyrinth, a green theater, ponds and flower beds will delight young and old alike.
