"From Cour de Honneur to A Terrace With A View" Chaumont-sur-Loire Things to Do Tip by hquittner

As finished in the early 16C, the chateau was four sided. In 1740 the owner at that time. one Nicolas Bertin, removed the north wing and built the terrace which provides one of the finest views of the Loire. The buildings themselves are not very outstanding from this side, but there is a pretty carved well. Balconies were added in the later 19C so that the residents could walk around and enjoy the view.
