In this episode of The Tudor History & Travel Show, we travel to the Loire Valley, France, to visit the beautiful Château de Chenonceau. We step back in time, as we tour this incredible building, following the stories of five important Renaissance ladies.
Joined by our guide, Amelie Lanseaux, we head to the tranquil, riverside setting to wander through the sun-drenched rooms of a building that was once home to the French Renaissance court.
