The Château de Gizeux dates back to the Middle Ages and was remodeled over the centuries, particularly during the Renaissance and the 18th century. Located in the commune of Gizeux, within the Loire-Anjou-Touraine Regional Natural Park, on the borders of the former province of Anjou, it is one of the Loire Valley châteaux. Its façades stretch over 250 meters, making it the longest château in the Angevin region of Touraine.

Home to two of the most beautiful galleries in France, the Château de Gizeux is a true treasure of the Loire Valley with its rich history and thanks to all the activities and events that bring it to life today. The oldest parts of the castle recall the family of the poet Joachim du Bellay, owner of Gizeux for 350 years. During these more than three centuries, the Du Bellays made numerous modifications to the building, changing it from medieval austerity to Renaissance charm. Among the numerous rooms of the castle, two of them are particularly remarkable: the François I gallery and the gallery of the King's castles. The first, produced at the end of the reign of Henri IV, was imagined by Italian artists at the request of Marie d'Yvetot, wife of Martin du Bellay. She therefore had the so-called “Francois I” gallery decorated with numerous remarkably preserved paintings and mythological scenes. The gallery of the King's castles, the true pride of the Château de Gizeux, was created around 1680. No less than 400m² of murals honor the royal castles of Chambord, Vincennes, Fontainebleau and Versailles. . These prestigious historical monuments are complemented by charming rural and bucolic scenes, emblematic of rural life of the time. A visit to the Château de Gizeux also allows you to immerse yourself in the heart of the 18th century with the discovery of the main building and the small lounges that make it up. Marquetry furniture and Louis XV armchairs decorate these elegant rooms, the furniture of which is classified as a Historic Monument. The kitchen to be discovered during the visit was functional until the 1970s, thus constituting a precious testimony to castle life in the 20th century. A wood stove is still present there, as is a large series of coppers including a turbotière, a jam basin and various dishes and pans. More recent history also draws visitors to the cellars, since they served as a hiding place for resistance fighters during the Second World War, even though the Germans occupied the castle. There is also the castle's first central heating installed in the 19th century, a guarantee of modernity for the time. In addition to the 15th century chapel and the incredible 18th century stables, the owners of the Château de Gizeux, Géraud and Stéphanie de Laffon, also offer to stay in this idyllic setting while enjoying the guest rooms furnished in the charm of the old and with modern comfort. They also bring this precious heritage to life on a daily basis through multiple fun and attractive activities for young and old: free or guided tours, costumed or narrated, by day or by candlelight. The numerous workshops offered to children (gardening, storytelling and snacks, bread oven, coat of arms) today bring all the life that has always defined this incredible Gizeux castle.

The castle and the Hôtel-Dieu de Baugé, today managed by the city, are among the heritage riches of this thousand-year-old city, labeled “Most beautiful detour in France” and “Little City of Character”. Known for his numerous architectural achievements, King René, Duke of Anjou, had the castle built in the 15th century as his hunting lodge. Simplicity, charm and elegance are the key words of this architectural ensemble, as evidenced by the imposing spiral staircase overlooked by its palm tree vault. Baugé castle first appeared at the beginning of the 11th century when Foulques III Nerra, count of Anjou and formidable warrior, had a fortress built on a rocky spur, at the confluence of the Couesnon and the Altrée, intended to secure east of its territory. No trace of this vast ensemble remains today, the last vestiges having been razed in the middle of the 19th century during the development of the current Place de l'Europe in front of the castle. Between the 11th and 14th centuries, a new castle was built on the site of the current castle, but the sources are incomplete for this period. It was probably burned down during the Hundred Years' War. On these bases the current castle was built between 1454 and 1465, commissioned by René I, Duke of Anjou (1409-1480) from its architect Guillaume Robin. Discover the new scenography of the Château de Baugé inaugurated in May 2021: the Palace of King René. In this brand new journey, let yourself be told the stories of a great story, that of a unique knight-artist. Imagine... You are the guest of a royal banquet, you discover the precious works of the library or, surprise, you explore an astonishing forest in the attic of the castle until then closed to the public. Between history and poetry, daily life and imagination, the new route through the Palais du Roi René will leave you dreaming. The visit to the Baugé castle goes hand in hand with the discovery of the Hôtel-Dieu de Baugé. The city's first hospital opened in 1650 thanks to the tenacity of two women wishing to offer a place of welcome and care to the most deprived in the region, it closed in 2001 after 350 years of hospital activity. In turn, the sick room, the baroque chapel, the convent buildings, the simple garden are revealed to visitors. The whole still constitutes today a coherent architectural ensemble and witness to the dual vocation of the place: care of souls and care of the body. Among the masterpieces to discover in the Loire Valley, the apothecary is one of the must-sees. A mysterious atmosphere reigns in this 17th century pharmacy, recognized as one of the richest and most complete in Europe.
