Amboise - Château
The "Château d'Amboise rises over the town.
It´s owner Louis d'Amboise had unsucessfully plotted against Louis XI and was condemned to be executed in 1431. King Charles VII (aka "le Bien-Servi") pardoned him but took his château at Amboise.
For about two centuries the château was a favourite of French kings. Over many decades the château got rebuilt. First in flamboyant Gothic later under Italian architects in Renaissance style.
It was here, where Charles VIII died in 1498, afte after he hit his head on a door lintel. Francis I was raised here. He later invited Leonardo da Vinci to Amboise. Leonardo arrived in 1515 and lived here upto his death in 1519.
Henry II and Catherine de Medici raised their children here along with Mary Stuart, the child Queen of Scotland who had been promised in marriage to the future French Francis II.
