Tips from the Community
Château de Montrésor was actually born twice From the outside, it looks like one castle, but it consists of two worlds: a medieval fortress from the 11th century; an elegant Renaissance residence from the 16th century. So you literally walk through almost 1000 years of history. According to a local legend, the name Montrésor comes from “mont du trésor” - the mountain of treasure. There was once a hidden treasure in the hill. Is that really true? Probably not… but a medieval castle naturally comes with a treasure story.

The site is interesting, but very poorly maintained. It deserves a major renovation.

A small turret with a conical roof houses a hydraulic ram installed at the end of the 19th century by Count Branicki. It was used to supply water to the castle and two of its overhanging farms.

Very beautiful contemporary church dedicated to Saint Sylvain. Built in the early 1960s to replace a 12th-century church that was demolished after the war due to its dilapidated condition. Its bright and peaceful setting allows you to fully enjoy its architecture. Several paintings are classified as historical monuments.

Between Montrésor and Chemillé-sur-Indrois are underground aqueducts. These underground galleries dug into the rock by the Romans were used to supply a villa and thermal baths. Go to the Montrésor post office car park and follow the signs to this building.
