The Château de Meslay is an elegant residence located in Meslay, in the Loir-et-Cher region, approximately 5 km from Vendôme, France. It is a historic monument built in 1732 by the architect Jules Michel Hardouin, nephew of the famous Hardouin-Mansart. It was built on the site of an earlier fortified castle that had hosted Henry IV in 1589. This château is unique because it has remained in the same family for 11 generations. The current owners, the Boisfleury family, worked to have it listed as a Historic Monument in 2016 and to open it to the public in 2019.

With its orientation table, this bucolic viewpoint offers a view of Vendôme in its entirety, with the abbey prominently displayed in the foreground of the landscape. You can rest here to recharge your batteries and eat. Come during the week when it's less crowded.

Top route!

Rue du Change in Vendôme. Pedestrian street with a view of the Trinity

Although the Notre-Dame church in the town of Areines may seem modest in size, the richness of its interior decoration is remarkable. It consists of a rectangular nave from the 11th century that extends into a narrower choir and ends with a semi-circular apse from the 12th century. The bell tower was added in the Gothic period. All the walls are covered with murals. The restoration of those in the choir and apse dating from the middle of the 12th century allows us to see: Christ in Majesty, the Lamb with a halo, the Annunciation, the Visitation, the Nativity, saints and apostles. Some of these primitive frescoes were covered by paintings from the 15th, 16th and 18th centuries. Many traces are visible on the walls of the nave and will be restored in the years to come.
