Tomb on the path marked out in the sidewalk soil, with large gold nails inlaid along the way to the chapel.

The remains of the Prince de Talleyrand, Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, had lain in the family crypt since his burial in Valençay on September 5, 1838. Since then, they have been reassembled in the Notre-Dame chapel, from shadow to light!

From the gates of the château, the path is marked out in the sidewalk with large golden "tombeau de Talleyrand" nails bearing the prince's effigy. These nails are inlaid at regular intervals along a path leading to the chapel, through the town's beautiful little streets.

Tombeau de Talleyrand
C'est ici que repose Charles-Maurice de Talleyrand-Périgord, personnage au parcours édifiant et controversé. Acteur majeur du Congrès de Vienne, il a servi sous 6 ou 7 régimes différents, de Louis XVI à Charles X. La petite marche entre le château de Valençay et cette chapelle permet de découvrir le charmant village de Valençay.

Très belle petite chapelle, très bien entretenue avec le tombeau de Talleyrand
