Château des Hauts de La Chapelle-Saint-Mesmin, Medieval castle in La Chapelle-Saint-Mesmin, France.

The castle features two cylindrical towers from the 15th century and a facade with a terrace offering views over the Loire River.

King Charles VII ordered the restoration of this former manor house, which later received visits from Kings Henry II and Charles IX.

Actress Mademoiselle Raucourt lived here from 1801 to 1815, creating a botanical garden containing 463 plant varieties.

The castle, renovated in 2013, now serves as the headquarters for an IT engineering company.

The castle grounds span twelve hectares and maintain rare plant species exchanged with the gardens of Château de Malmaison.
