Château de Saint-Denis-sur-Loire
Description
Château de Saint-Denis-sur-Loire dates originally from the early Middle Ages. It was enlarged in the 13th century and acquired by Philippe Hurault in 1341. It still belongs to the successors of Hurault family. The castle was again restored in the 18th century.
This place is very famous, thanks to its thermal mineral water resort from more than a thousand year. During the 16th century Catherine de Medici and Marie de Medici, Queens of France, visited several times there. The baths were restored in 1851 and bottled mineral water was brought also to Paris.
