The house of Monmousseau is at the heart of the Loire valley in Montrichard. This region is remarkable for the quality of its architectural heritage, its historic towns and its prestigious constructions, drenched in history. Its majestic castles, such as Chambord, Chenonceau or Cheverny, retrace and relate the story of every more or less important historic event in France.<\/p>\n

Situated along the Cher River, irresistible Montrichard<\/strong>, within the district of Monmousseau, is a medieval city with character at the crossroads of the region\u2019s tourist attractions. Maison Monmousseau has established its guided tour within this exceptional environment. Its cellars are presented in an artistic, magical and unique way, in view of promoting the region\u2019s heritage and rich troglodyte dwellings.<\/p>\n

The guided tour starts off outside. A balcony overlooking the Cher River provides visitors with an extensive view of the famous \u201cValley of the Kings\u201d, equally called \u201cThe Garden of France\u201d. This exceptional panorama displays all of the landscape\u2019s typical characteristics: its hillsides, troglodyte dwellings and inland waterways. Indeed, the Loire and its tributaries are one of the reasons, leading to the plantation and the development of vineyards along these rivers. Loaded inside the cargo hold of freight river boats, the tuffeau stone was routed along the Cher and local rivers towards building sites in the Loire Valley and neighboring regions. This waterway was equally largely used for the transportation of wines, before the construction of railway lines \u2013 an initiative that the Monmousseau family took part in.<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t
