About Château de la Ferté Saint-Aubin
The Château de la Ferté Saint-Aubin is a castle located in the Loire Valley region of France. It is situated in the town of La Ferté-Saint-Aubin, in the department of Loiret. The castle was first built in the 15th century, and underwent a major renovation in the 17th century, during which it was transformed into a château in the French classical style. The castle features a large moat, a drawbridge, and a grand entrance gate, which leads to a courtyard surrounded by buildings that house the castle's living quarters. The castle's interior is lavishly decorated, with ornate frescoes, sculptures, and furnishings. The castle's rooms include a grand salon, a dining room, a chapel, and a library. The castle's gardens are also well worth a visit, with their beautifully manicured lawns, flowerbeds, and fountains. The castle has played an important role in French history, having been owned by several prominent French families over the centuries, including the Bussy and the Lamoignon families. During World War II, the castle was occupied by German troops, and suffered extensive damage. It was subsequently restored, and is now open to the public.
