One of the oldest Fortified Farms from the 13th century, with its outbuildings, in the center of which stands a Medieval Barn of 1,500 m2.

This small fortified town has its origins in the middle of the 11th century. It was at this time that the castle was built. It will be reworked several times thereafter, notably during the Hundred Years War. The town thus developed over the centuries. It experienced strong development in the 19th century thanks to the tannery industry, making Château-Renault the city of leather. Since then, the old industries have been converted. The city has a rich medieval and industrial heritage to discover by admiring its castle and visiting the tannery museum.

Beautiful quiet and bucolic place

Very nice greenway in a beautiful environment

The greenway connects the municipalities of Reugny, Chancay, Vernou-en-Brenne and Vouvray. The first step is to connect the municipalities of the valley and their equipment for the inhabitants while having a tourist vocation for the visit of the valley and its curiosities. The practice is reserved for pedestrians, cyclists but also motorized vehicles without pollution, at reduced speed (10 km/h) and without noise, i.e. vehicles electrical type. The route uses many existing structures, such as the old railway line, built more than a century ago. The structures used by the route are protected and restored to standards in order to be crossed. The furniture, sober and robust, is made to measure in addition to the existing one. The parts on mixed sites have been secured and uniform signage has been put in place throughout the course.

In the Center region, department of Indre et Loire, in the commune of Chançay, the Brenne river follows its course for several kilometers, thus crossing the territory. On its outskirts, old small heritage sites such as wash houses, as well as old mills, today mostly private properties, line the banks. In the past, the waters of the Brenne powered nearly thirty water mills, each with their own specificities, but most of them have now disappeared. The few buildings still existing, precious testimonies of past artisanal activity, are today visible during walking tours. We will mention in particular the Moulin du Bourg, located near the municipal school, the Moulin à Foulon, and the Moulin Neuf.

Small road which passes at the foot of the barn. Worth the detour. Beautiful old building
