When the Renaissance rolled around, the tough old fortress of Amboise got a makeover into a fancy royal home! Kings Charles VIII and François I of France hung out here with their posse, which included lots of smart folks and talented artists from all over Europe. Even Leonardo da Vinci chilled here and now rests peacefully in the castle's chapel.

This place has seen some serious action in French history! Inside, you'll find a bunch of super cool furniture from the Gothic and Renaissance periods, showing off how fancy things got during the French Renaissance. And don't forget to check out the Royal House and the huge Cavalry Towers before strolling through the amazing gardens with a view of the Loire River. It's like stepping back in time and living like royalty for a day!
