The Châteaux of the Loire Valley are famous worldwide and rightly so. From old medieval fortresses such as those at Chinon to more stately castles dotted around the area, they make great subjects for both landscape and travel photography.
In this latest episode from my YouTube channel, more castles are the subject of my lens in the Indre-et-Loire department of France. I’ll show you three castles that probably haven’t been on your list of places to visit, but hopefully, you’ll change that with these beauties. This central area of France plays host to some 144 castles that are registered as historic monuments.
With this series, I aim to introduce some of the well-known as well as lesser-known castles that are here in central France. Do be aware, though, that not all of them are accessible to the public and remain behind high walls sealed off from public gaze. But those that are visible will be covered where I can.
And if you’re interested in discovering the Loire Valley with a camera, then do check out my annual Loire Valley photo tour in May.
