To make a day of it

Château de la Pataudière stands in Champigny-sur-Veude (Indre-et-Loire), in the Centre-Val de Loire region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: limite 16th century 17th century, 19th century). The building is privately owned and no visits are on record.

In Champigny-sur-Veude, the château de la Pataudière stands out for its elongated shape, made up of five pavilions joined together over successive building phases. Its original core dates from the turn of the 16th to the 17th century, before a southern extension was added at the end of the 19th century. Visitors can still make out older defensive features - blocked gun ports, splayed loopholes - along with a surrounding wall, a gateway and two corner towers, one turned into a chapel, the other housing a spiral staircase that once led to the ramparts.
