Description
One of Europe's most beautiful regions is celebrated through the talents of artist Fabrice Moireau
When, at the end of the Middle Ages, the kings of France settled in the Loire Valley, they found a very mild climate and began to build castles that would gradually become one of the most harmonious residential complexes in Europe. This book invites you to discover these cultural landscapes that have allowed the Loire Valley to be inscribed on the Unesco World Heritage list. The intimate work of the two authors, who know the region so well, has given them the opportunity to capture the emotions they have accumulated over the years and to show their favorite places, off the beaten track.
