Ideally located within the triangle formed by the Châteaux of Langeais, Azay le Rideau and Villandry, the Château de Fontenay has been open to the public since 2004. Built on the ruins of a rectangular Gallo-Roman villa, the original walls of this 15th-century manor house are still intact. The garden within the walls is beautifully intimate, evoking images of medieval courtly romances. The owners are usually on hand to welcome guests.
