69 châteaux listed · verified entries first, then the most visited; alphabetical index at the bottom of the page

Of the 303 castles we list in Indre-et-Loire, these 69 have a building campaign from this period, according to the French Ministry of Culture's records.

We record 69 castles, manor houses and strongholds from the Classical period, spread across 54 towns and villages. The ones with the most visitor reviews are Château d'Ussé (Ussé Castle) (open to visitors), Château de Gizeux (Gizeux Castle) (a listed historic monument), Château de Valesne (Valesne Castle) (you can stay the night), Manoir de La Bruère (dénommé parfois improprement La Chancellerie) (with a restaurant) and Château de Boussay (Boussay Castle) (on the historic monuments register).

13 of them receive visitors, according to their official website or their business listing. We have checked the opening hours of 10 and the prices of 8 of them, and each entry shows the date of that check. 15 of them are listed historic monuments, the highest level of protection in French heritage law. The dominant period is the Classical period, with 69 buildings. Each entry says what we could verify and what still needs confirming: enough to plan a day that holds together.
