The next chateau was a big tourist attraction with buses and people of every nation all present at the time I arrived. The sun came out and with the humidity i was glad to stay in the cool interior and do an audio tour . This chateau was bought at the turn of the century by a Spanish scientist and his very rich American Heiress specificlly to house their extensive collection of medieval and renaissance art. The family still owns it but I think there is generoussupport from the French government. The interior is pretty amazing but the spectacular thing is the gardens.
