Jardins de la Chatonnière, Renaissance garden in Loire Valley, France

The gardens of Chatonnière extend across thirteen distinct areas, each designed with specific themes including elegance, science, and fragrances within the Loire Valley landscape.

Between 1995 and 2009, Béatrice Gonzalez de Andia y Elio created these gardens after inheriting the château from her father, continuing the estate's heritage.

These gardens incorporate French horticultural traditions through structured layouts, medicinal plant collections, and seasonal flower arrangements that change throughout the year.

Visitors can explore eleven themed gardens and terraces around a seven-towered château, with each section offering different botanical experiences throughout the seasons.

The garden features circular chambers made of living wicker that form a central labyrinth, complemented by 400 English roses growing beneath tall linden trees.
