Completed around 1536 it is the last of the great castles built on the banks of the Loire at the time of the Renaissance. In 1906, the castle is bought by Carvallo. He first restores the castle and then wants to restore the renaissance gardens that had been replaced by an English park in the 19th. Archaeological surveys reveal vestiges of the old French garden. The gardens restore the architectural order adopted during the Renaissance under the influence of Italian gardeners.
