Taken in Touraine...winter scene at Le Grand-Pressigny.

From a quiet path on the edge of Le Grand-Pressigny, the village opens toward its remarkable centrepiece, the château and the Prehistory Museum. Soft December light settles across the rooftops, the tall poplars, and the limestone walls, giving the whole scene a gentle winter warmth.

The museum building, with its contemporary extension, sits alongside the medieval keep and the Renaissance wing in a striking blend of past and present that defines this part of Touraine so beautifully.

“A still moment in Touraine, where history and landscape meet quietly.”
