About Château Royal d'Amboise

Amboise Castle is a highlight of any Loire Valley visit, bringing together royal heritage, artistic legacy, and scenic surroundings. The castle offers a close look at Renaissance history, the lasting influence of Leonardo da Vinci, and engaging storytelling through interactive tours and well-kept gardens.

Did you know?

The Saint-Hubert Chapel at Château d'Amboise houses the tomb of Leonardo da Vinci, who died in Amboise in 1519 and requested burial there.

The château’s Minimes and Hertault towers feature spiral stone ramps so gentle that horses could ascend to the battlements.

Amboise Castle was a favored royal residence during the French Renaissance, hosting kings like Charles VIII and François I.

The castle’s gardens include a section dedicated to Emir Abd El Kader, an Algerian leader once imprisoned at Amboise, now celebrated with the Garden of the Orient.

Why visit Château Royal d'Amboise?

Leonardo da Vinci’s Tomb

Visit the beautifully restored Saint-Hubert Chapel, the final resting place of Leonardo da Vinci, and admire its intricate Gothic architecture and stained glass.

Immersive HistoPad AR Experience

Enhance your visit with a complimentary HistoPad tablet, offering augmented reality reconstructions of lost decorations and period furnishings throughout the château.

Panoramic Loire Valley Views

Climb the castle’s towers for breathtaking 360° views over the UNESCO-listed Loire Valley and the charming town of Amboise.

Stunning Renaissance Interiors

Wander through grand halls and royal apartments filled with Gothic and Renaissance décor, monumental fireplaces, and centuries-old craftsmanship.

Enchanting Gardens

Relax in the Italianate Garden of Naples and the romantic Garden of the Orient, both offering serene landscapes and vibrant seasonal blooms.

Plan your visit

Main Entrance (Montée de l’Émir Abd El Kader)

You’ll find the main entrance at the top of Montée de l’Émir Abd El Kader, just off Place Michel Debré and close to the well-known Pâtisserie Bigot. This is where all visitors enter the site, and it has been designed to be fully wheelchair accessible, with ramps and step-free access leading into the castle grounds. Clear signs from the town center and nearby parking make it easy to reach, and staff are available to help visitors with limited mobility if needed.
