It is built above the Loire Valley. The current building which succeeded the castle of St Louis, was rebuilt at the end of the 14th century by Louis 1st Duke of Anjou. Altered internally at the 15th century by Rene of Anjou, it was strengthened at the end of the 16th century. Residence of the governor of Saumur under Louis XIV, it was then transformed into prison.
In our days, there is three muesums: The museum of decorative arts, the museum of the Horse and a museum of old toys.

Une très belle photo de nuit en effet, parfaitement exposée. Bon contraste de la toiture foncée sur le ciel sombre, une réussite technique. Comme d'habitude une note d'accompagnement riche et instructive, très bon travail Said.

Good exposure. The yellow spot light adds another dimension to the photo.
