Visitors' recommendations

To save time, prepare your visit in advance by purchasing your no-queuing tickets here.

Pay for your parking as soon as you arrive in the terminals provided for that purpose (single charge for the day).

Do not hesitate to take your visitor’s leaflet at the château entrance so as to see where you are and where are you going.

The Chambord Wifi Public network remains at the disposal of château visitors.

In the autumn and the winter, some rooms are heated; while we light chimney fires to warm our visitors, it is strongly recommended that they wear warm clothes
