The luxurious residences of the rulers of France, generously scattered by the monarchs in the Loire Valley, have been competing for human attention for centuries. Among the pearls of the valley stands out the snow-white castle of Cheverny, built of a special limestone, which does not crumble over the years, but only becomes stronger. Surprisingly, the facade of the castle has not been restored for almost 400 years. Cheverny Castle has a happy fate – it has never suffered from destruction and almost all the time since its construction belonged to the same family. Even now the descendants of French aristocrats live in the chateau’s rooms, together with the staff, carefully caring for their rarity. Metropol Voyage recommends not to miss the lively Château de Cheverny, which boasts perfectly preserved interiors, antique furniture and a stunning collection of paintings by famous painters. In the summertime, history itself comes alive within the castle walls. In Cheverny twice a week they organize a real medieval deer hunt with all the necessary attributes of the action. Protected by UNESCO, the chateau is deeply engraved in the heart of every visitor, making them want to come back again.
