Our starting point will be the small children's playground right next to the church.
So, I'll start by providing information about the church, including an explanation of the word “Rest.” We will then head towards the Place des Diligences for more detailed explanations about the seigneurial core.
We will then climb a small street to admire the castle from the heights above the village, where I can explain the importance of tuffeau stone quarrying during the 19th century and the evolution of the castle over the centuries.
I will then lead you along a small path made of “vineyard stones” to discover the ruins of a “church.”
Standing in front of her house, I will tell you the storey of the Lady of Montsoreau.
We will then descend to the banks of the Loire, where I will tell you all about the history of riverboat transport, the local ports, and the Montsoreau Bridge.
We will conclude our tour at the castle's dry moat, ending the tour in front of the castle for those who wish to visit it immediately. Otherwise, I will accompany you back to our starting point, sharing a few final local anecdotes on the way back.
