Restored castle with French garden, educational farm and park hosting the Celestial Lights Festival in winter.
Don't miss this little marvel of splendor. We can't praise this pink and gray brick edifice enough, with its symmetrical square towers and superb formal garden. After years of dormancy, this estate has been magnificently restored and reawakened. Originally, Château de Selles was a medieval fortress that passed through many hands. Over time, its appearance changed according to the fashions and tastes of its occupants. It reached its present form in 1880. The tour can be done in 3D, thanks to tablets that immerse you in the history of this magnificent residence.
The boutique offers a wide range of local products, especially the wine produced by the château on its Châtillon-sur-Cher estate, which is matured in the cellar located in the former stables. The château also offers self-catering cottages, a hall for weddings and events, and even part of the park with its three courtyards, including the medieval one where a mini vineyard is planted.
The temporarily closed dinosaur park offers an extraordinary adventure amidst fifty of these mythical animals, reproduced at 2/3 of their actual size. A breathtaking spectacle, with some of them animated for even greater verisimilitude. A veritable lost world on the edge of Touraine, to be discovered by the whole family as soon as the necessary administrative authorizations have been obtained.

Nous sommes heureux que votre visite vous ait laissé un beau souvenir. En effet, nous avons agrandi le parcours dans le parc, en créant, notamment, une allée très ombragée, bienvenue les jours de canicule. A bientôt
Un doux voyage vers la Chine. S’il est renouvelé chaque année, je serai ravie de refaire la balade. Attention, vêtements chauds conseillés
effectivement, le château offre à présent des festivals comme celui que vous avez découvert il y a peu et nous sommes heureux de voir que votre visite vous ait laissé un si beau souvenir.
Cet événement fermera ses portes le 8 mars 2020, laissant la place à de futurs festivals comme les Médiévales, les Geek Faeries mais également les Dinosaures sur toute la période estivale et, pour répondre à votre interrogation, une seconde édition hivernale !
