A castle-palace of the Dukes of Anjou in the 19th and 19th centuries, the Château de Saumur, where King René resided, is the last example of the princely palaces built by the Valois dynasty. It served as the residence of the city's governors, a prison, and later an arms and ammunition depot. It was purchased by the city in 1906 to house the municipal museum, now the Musée de France. Today, we discover the rich collections scattered throughout the former apartments of the Dukes of Anjou in an educational museography. Want to know more?

From this location you have beautiful views of the Loire. Definitely worth a visit at sunset.

A beautiful chambres d'hôtes, stay in the small Château de Hureau or in the Gites du Jardin. Very friendly and helpful hosts, very concerned about the well-being of their guests, and a beautiful garden to end the day. Highly recommended! We felt very comfortable there ❤️

Small castle that housed the Queen of Sicily, mother of King René. She probably died there in 1442.

Wonderful view of the Loire from the Château de Saumur.

The castle is definitely worth seeing, especially with children. The Tolkien exhibition, well, and perhaps the 150 Stirrups aren't something you need to see. But the knights' armour, the furnished rooms and the castle itself are interesting for small children. In 1-1.5 hours you can see everything for free, adults 8 euros.

This is a "pity" of the must-sees! On paper, of course, Saumur + Château is the winning combo... Be careful! In reality, wasted time and a great disappointment. A very beautiful castle, it's true, but empty: empty of soul, empty of intelligence, empty of history. The castle has been transformed into an exhibition space by the city, which clearly doesn't know what a good exhibition curator is supposed to do, so it's making the summer intern work, who this year had just finished all of Tolkien and said to himself: "Hey, Tolkien is still the Middle Ages, Gandalf was a friend of King Arthur, if we exhibited tapestries that talk about Middle Earth!" A false good idea, and suddenly a must-see (because hey, it's still a beautiful castle) to bypass. It'll be quick, it's not that big!

Magnificent medieval construction erected on a rocky promontory, the old castle of Saumur proudly overlooks the city and the banks of the Loire. Classified as a historical monument since 1964, it has housed many exhibitions since it opened to the public, which vary over the years. Whether you are passing through or roaming, treat yourself to a visit and enjoy the exceptional panorama from its height.
