Chinon
A Karen Brown Recommendation
Chinon is a huge crumbling fortress set high above the River Vienne, with a medieval
town and tree-lined boulevard at its feet. Henry II of England died here, his son Richard the Lionheart owned it, King John lost it to the French, and Joan of Arc came here to plead with Charles VII for an army. It is an interesting walk around the skeleton of this fortification, but be prepared to fill in large chunks of the interior with your imagination.
