Château des Brétignolles, Gothic castle in Anché, France.
The Château des Brétignolles stands near Chinon with its medieval tower, Gothic chapel, and symmetrical outbuildings constructed in 1732.
The estate, mentioned in documents from Charles II the Bald in the 9th century, belonged to Marmoutier Abbey before the Bernard family built the castle between 1450 and 1480.
The castle hosts annual events including the Dog Festival, summer cinema screenings, and historical celebrations that connect visitors with regional traditions.
Adult admission costs 8 euros, with reduced rates for students and free entry for children under 12 and persons with reduced mobility.
The property features troglodyte caves carved into the hillside and contains a Bollée wind engine, installed between 1894 and 1902 for water pumping purposes.
