he "Route des 1001 Châteaux" presents a wide range of châteaux, each one with a different architectural style: from medieval castles and fortresses, to the elegant and strict Grand Siècle (17th Century), through Renaissance's amazing blossoming. All of these châteaux combine the splendor of carved stones with harmonious sites. As most of them are still dwelling places, History lives in those settings that witnessed the past.
