Known as the "Ladies' Castle" because of the influential women who shaped its history, Château de Chenonceau is one of France's most elegant castles. Built across the River Cher, its distinctive arches create one of the country's most photographed castle scenes. The castle's history includes powerful figures such as Diane de Poitiers and Catherine de' Medici, who transformed Chenonceau into a centre of Renaissance culture and influence. Visitors can explore beautifully decorated rooms, gardens and riverside paths. The surrounding Loire Valley is one of Europe's best cycling regions, making Chenonceau an ideal stop on an outdoor castle adventure.
