So, we will speak about History and Architecture but we will also speak about cinema as well! It is nicknamed "the ladies chateau" because Its owners had only been women. It has gorgeous Renaissance gardens divided in 2 parts : Catherine de Medici's garden and Diane de Poitiers's garden (the King's Mistress!!!). Those 2 women used to hate each other...
