The welcome at the château gate. An absolutely charming lady greeted us, helped to spoil us in the place reserved for the disabled, and directed us to the start of the tour. Very friendly indeed. The tour of the château and grounds is great. The holograms and model room are perfect. Highly recommendable. However, it's a pity that the gourmet restaurant was closed and that the table du moulin had so little choice of dishes (quiche or burger). So we went out to eat and came back afterwards for the park.

The Château du Clos Lucé, formerly called Manoir du Cloux, is located in the center of Amboise, France. Built in 1941, this luxurious residence building has been passed on to several famous owners throughout history. While it stands in all its Renaissance glory, decorated royally on the inside - the Château is most popularly known for being the Leonardo Da Vinci’s last home. With the invitation of Francis I, Da Vinci moved into the royal french residence in 1516 and went on to spend the last three years of his life here.

Besides a splendid collection of art and sculptures, the Château boasts a wide display of the Italian Maestro’s best inventions. You will be able to witness and take photos of architectural wonders such as The articulated glider, The Tank, The Catapult, The Mechanical Drum, and more. Learn all about his inspirations and his little secrets that you will only find out here, at your own pace! Wrap up your informative, self-guided tour with leisure time at the lush park and gardens or at your own expense, tickle your taste buds to a delicious meal in one of the three restaurants available on site.
