    How I love these views! It was a delight to open my email and find this visit to Amboise. We have such fond memories of one of our very first Loire Valley château visits. Merci, Véro!

    Loved this. Brought back memories of the morning my friend Isabelle & I spent there in May2022. Unfortunately the Chapel was closed for restoration so was so pleased to experience it in your video. Merci Véro.

      Many people have been anxiously waiting the chapel to reopen. Glad you could discover it with me, however virtually.

    Thanks for the tour. When I was there last September the restoration work was in progress and we heard the stone masons at work. How lovely to see it reopened!

      Moi aussi! It's impressive given the (small) size of the chapel.

      I was happy to share this with all the visitors who, like you, have been frustrated to see the chapel under wraps over the last couple of years Cindy.

    Véro, I just re-watched your beautiful Amboise video. Within the chapel, where Rembrandt is buried, there are fleur de lit tiles all around. It appears to me the fleur de lit tiles are upside down. Am I correct? Can you explain this. Merci.
