This unique Renaissance château, 12km south of Saumur, sits atop a network of subterranean rooms and passages, dating from at least the 11th century, that account for more square footage than the castle itself. Explore the original troglodyte dwelling directly under the château, then cross a deep moat to other caves adapted by the castle’s owners for use as kitchens, wine cellars and defensive bastions. Finish your visit with a climb to the château’s rooftop, followed a tasting of wines from surrounding vineyards.
Agglobus line 2 connects Saumur and Brézé.
