Ville de Château-Renault

The heritage interpretation circuit unveils the secrets of Château-Renault in 17 panels and an orientation table, and invites you to a commented and illustrated discovery of the medieval, renaissance, classic and industrial heritage of the former Cité du cuir in Château-Renault. It allows to wander in the city and in the countryside, to discover great monuments and discreet and picturesque streets, to apprehend part of the mysteries of the old historical Gâtine once wooded and inaccessible, and to explore a preserved environment, nestled in wooded valleys, and crossed by winding rivers once dotted with wheat, coot or tan mills.
