Castle-museum in Gien, built in 1482 by Anne de France, with collections related to hunting techniques.
The Château de Gien, overlooking the town, is a hymn to hunting, be it flying, courting or shooting. These three styles of predation have been widely presented since the 1950s. For those who know nothing about hunting, it's an educational and surprising starting point, where a whole part of the Loire's history linked to these practices, during royalty and after the Revolution, can be discovered on the 16-room tour. Paintings, sculptures, accessories, weapons... there's something for everyone.
