Château de Chaumont-sur-Loire stands in Chaumont-sur-Loire (Loir-et-Cher), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 15th century, 16th century, 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.

Standing on a bluff above the Loire between Amboise and Blois, the Château de Chaumont-sur-Loire combines the defensive character of a 15th century stronghold with refinements added over the centuries by its various owners. The round, machicolated towers at the entrance recall feudal warfare, while the stables built at the end of the 19th century reflect the wealth of the Broglie family. The estate, now owned by the Centre-Val de Loire region, is also known for its park and for the international garden festival held there every year.
