This is a small chapel stands right beside the imposing château. Chambord, the best-known Loire château and an icon of the French Renaissance, was built for King François I in the 16th century. The national estate has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981, and its 5,440-hectare park is also a national wildlife and hunting reserve. The north façade offers a fine view of the château's striking architecture and size. Nearby, the Maréchal de Saxe stables host equestrian shows with horses and birds of prey, April to October.
