Charles VII's treasurer before his fall from grace, he reportedly spent only a handful of nights within its walls despite their remarkable decorative richness. Visitors move through private quarters such as the Galées chamber, ceremonial rooms like the Banqueting Hall, and utilitarian spaces including kitchens, steam rooms and cloakrooms that reveal the daily life of a great medieval household.
