Guiding Tour Châteaudun

Presentation

A historic site on a rocky outcropping overlooking the Loir, set around the castle and the market square. A trip back in time through the steep, winding streets, past stone or half-timbered houses with rich decor, religious and civil buildings.
About the monument :
Remains of a terrible fire which destroyed the city in 1723, the historic part of Châteaudun is perched on a rocky spur overlooking the river Loir. It is organised around two hubs: its chateau and the market place from different eras, the Middle-Ages and the Renaissance. The order of the classical era is found in the steep, winding streets which surround the dungeon. The tour allows visitors to discover typical timber-framed or stone houses, with rich ornamentation, as well as civilian and religious buildings. Go down "la Descente Saint-Pierre" and its 200 steps, which will take you from the heights of the old districts and down into the Loir valley.
