Description


Château de Chenonceau, the "Château des Dames" It was built by Katherine Briçonnet in 1513, enriched by Diane de Poitiers and enlarged under Catherine de Medici. It becomes a place of recollection with Queen Louise of Lorraine, then it is safeguarded by Louise Dupin during the French Revolution and finally, metamorphosed in the XIXth century by Mrs Pelouze. Due to the large number of female personalities who have been in charge, it is nicknamed the Castle of the Ladies. (Wikipedia) Château de Chenonceau, le « Château des Dames » Il est édifié par Katherine Briçonnet en 1513, enrichi par Diane de Poitiers et agrandi sous Catherine de Médicis. Il devient un lieu de recueillement avec la reine Louise de Lorraine, puis il est sauvegardé par Louise Dupin au cours de la Révolution française et enfin, métamorphosé au XIXème siècle par madame Pelouze. De par le grand nombre de personnalités féminines qui en ont eu la charge, il est surnommé le château des Dames. (wikipedia)

As you can see immediately the hands of women ... No, apart from that, the sphinxes looks beautiful. Just as if they were guarding the house. Hopefully you can pass without solving difficult puzzles. Fabulous photo, Jean-Claude.
