Château de Nitray, Renaissance castle in Athée-sur-Cher, France.
The Château de Nitray features two defensive towers, with one housing a chapel, and stands amid 43 hectares of English-style gardens and vineyards.
Built in the 16th century by Aimery Lopin, mayor of Tours and master of requests to Louise of Savoy, this castle replaced an earlier 13th-century structure.
The castle maintains an active wine production facility, continuing a tradition that began in the 18th century with varieties including Chenin, Cabernet, and Sauvignon.
The reception halls accommodate up to 200 seated guests, making it suitable for large gatherings, seminars, and celebrations throughout the year.
The castle preserves a functional lordly dovecote with an original rotating ladder system that remains in excellent condition.
