Chateau des Grotteaux, Practical Info

Chateau des Grotteaux is a 17th century castle in France. It has been called the "smallest of the greatest" Loire Valley castles for more than a hundred years. The chateau featuring unique murals by Jean Mosnier is also a luxurious hotel offering exclusive services and boasts a precious park, which was started thanks to the French emperor Napoleon Bonaparte who brought exotic plants and trees from his campaigns to the former owner of the chateau.

The 2 year-long restoration of the castle was almost complete when a flood occurred which resulted in 1.5mn euros in damages for the owners. Read the interview with them to learn how it feels to see the results of your hard work disappear within a couple hours.
