Le Ch\u00e2teau du Lude – Abbaye de l’\u00c9pau – Saint Julien Cathedral in Le Mans<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Castle of Lude<\/p>\n

20 minutes from the Ch\u00e2teau de Montaupin, the Ch\u00e2teau du Lude is today the result of 4 centuries of French architecture, from the 15th to the 19th century.<\/p>\n

It is rare to see in France a historical, listed and monumental castle that is still inhabited and alive.<\/p>\n

The Ch\u00e2teau du Lude is one of them.<\/p>\n

Strong from its history as the first castle of the Loire Valley, the Ch\u00e2teau du Lude offers you a virtuous visit of its salons and its gardens always well arranged and in continuous renovation.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

In the exterior aspects of the Ch\u00e2teau du Lude, you can appreciate its Renaissance facade, the courtyard of honor, the outbuildings, the neo-Gothic facade and the XVIII\u00b0 century facade.<\/p>\n

Inside the Ch\u00e2teau du Lude, you will find the reception rooms, the studiolo, the vestibule, the kitchens and the basement.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Ch\u00e2teau du Lude is very famous for its gardens and park which attract visitors and families for the Easter egg hunt.<\/p>\n

Abbaye de l’\u00c9pau 29 minutes from the Ch\u00e2teau de Montaupin, the Royal Abbey of l’\u00c9pau offers a journey into the history of the Cistercians and the Sarthe.<\/p>\n

Today owned by the Sarthe department, the Abbey of l’\u00c9pau was founded by Queen Berang\u00e8re of Navarre in the Middle Ages, in 1229-1230, who wanted to be buried in the abbey at her death.<\/p>\n

Like many abbeys and monasteries, l’\u00c9pau Abbey was built in the commune of Yvr\u00e9-L’\u00c9v\u00eaque, at the gates of the city of Le Mans, and is located on the banks of the Huisne River.<\/p>\n

The bishop of Le Mans in 1234, Monseigneur Geoffroy de Laval dedicates the abbey l’\u00c9pau by putting it under the patronage of Mary, Our Lady and Saint John the Baptist.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Since 2016, Sarthe Culture manages the Abbey l’\u00c9pau where there are many festivities and activities throughout the year: guided tours, workshops for children, not to mention the famous and prestigious Festival de l’\u00c9pau, a world-renowned classical music festival.<\/p>\n

Saint Julien Cathedral in Le Mans 35 minutes from the Ch\u00e2teau de Montaupin, come and discover one of the French architectural jewels, the Cathedral Saint Julien in Le Mans.<\/p>\n

The Saint Julien Cathedral is one of the greatest French monuments of the Gothic-Romanesque period.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Cathedral of Saint Julien in Le Mans is the result of nearly 4 centuries of architectural work, construction and renovation. Its beginnings date back to 1060 at the time of the bishop Vulgrin and it was completed in its current form around 1430.<\/p>\n

In the Cathedral we find the tombs of Saint Julien and Charles of Anjou.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The Cathedral of St. Julien houses unique stained glass windows and is a museum of stained glass art, including the oldest stained glass window, that of the Ascension.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
