Review & FAQ:

Chateau Amboise is situated on the Loire River at the confluence with its tributary, the Amasse River. It has always been a strategically defensive location. After the land was confiscated from Louis of Amboise in the 15th century, it became a royal residence until the 19th century. Many famous literary and artistic people were invited to the chateau. The property underwent several changes to the buildings and gardens. These are well documented for visitors to see. The chateau is open every day except Christmas Day and New Year and the premises are for hire for functions.
