Mejores Tours de Castillo de Chambord desde Madrid

Chateau de Chambord is one of a very few to have come out of France's turbulent years relatively unscathed, with only minor modifications to the structure. Originally conceived as a hunting lodge by François I in the early 16th century, the chateau later served as a summer retreat for successive monarchs. The whimsical exterior is typical of the French Renaissance style combining medieval flourishes with renaissance architecture. Be sure to check out the double circular staircase and the bewitching turrets and spires adorning the rooftop. Chateau de Chambord is a must-see for anyone visiting the Loire Valley.
