Monday's chateau -Montsoreau

Chateau de Montsoreau on the river Loire.

 

A great stretch of the river Loire

One of our favorite stretches of the river Loire is between Candes-Saint-Martin and Souzay-Champigny.

Starting from where the mighty Loire meets the river Vienne you have two of 'Les plus beaux villages de France' in Candes-Saint-Martin (with its great church)  and Montsoreau (with its chateau) as well as the troglodyte interests in Turquant and  Souzay-Champigny.
