Château de Chenonceau
The Château de Chenonceau (, also spelled Chenonceaux) is a French château spanning the River Cher, near the small village of Chenonceaux in the Indre-et-Loire ''département'' of the Loire Valley in France. It is one of the best-known châteaux of the Loire valley.〔(Presentation of the Chateaux of the Loire Valley on Eurochannel )〕
The estate of Chenonceau is first mentioned in writing in the 11th century.〔See catalog item: "Novak 164. Château de Chenonceau" at ("Tavik Frantisek Šimon (1877-1942) Notes to the Catalogue Raisonné" ). See also T. F. Šimon.and his etching of Chenonceau at Commons.〕 The current château was built in 1514–1522 on the foundations of an old mill and was later extended to span the river. The bridge over the river was built (1556-1559) to designs by the French Renaissance architect Philibert de l'Orme, and the gallery on the bridge (1570–1576) to designs by Jean Bullant.〔Hanser 2006, pp. 60–63. According to Hanser, although some architectural historians credit the obscure Denis Courtin for the gallery, it was probably Bullant.〕
