Cellettes

If you're looking for a snapshot of French history, few monuments will give you as all-encompassing a look into the past as the exquisite Royal Château de Blois.

From grand kings to peace-seeking queens, the château's walls whisper with the stories of its royal past. An architectural jewel, this grandiose castle boasts a mix of styles from Gothic to Renaissance and beyond. 

Follow in the footsteps of French historical figures like Joan of Arc and Henry IV as you wander at will. Don't miss the mysteriously named Chamber of Secrets!

Few places have as much history packed into one region as the Loire Vallery does. And when it comes to châteaus, even fewer can take credit for being the place where Joan of Arc was blessed by the Archbishop of Reims before going to war. The Royal Château de Blois has an excess of history and opulence that makes for a day well spent wandering its hallowed halls. 

Pick up an audio guide in your preferred language and learn about this prodigious château that's been home to seven kings and ten queens of France. You'll be drawn into the dramatic and bloody events that occurred here. Then, you'll see those events play out on the outer wall of the château as an ethereal light and sound show brings tales from the past to life.
