Monday's chateau in Centre-Valde Loire - Chateau de Boussay

This private chateau which sits on the edge of the small village of Boussay in Southern Touraine has its origins in the 11^th century. The current chateau with its 15 the century tower and its 17^th / 18th century heart and wings does not make for such a harmonious ensemble, yet sits well within its moats as an original homage to change and at the same time stability, as since 1342, it has been owned by the same family. Although private, visitors can stroll freely around the grounds that surround the chateau.
