Chateau de Colliers is a private chateau built during the XVIIth and XVIIIth
century by the King's architect, the chateau was originally owned by the Marquis
de Vaudreuil, once the governor of Louisiana. The property is right on the banks
of the Loire River at only 5 Kms. from the famous Castle of Chambord. In 1751
this property was sold to Jean Philippe, chamberlain of the King of Poland, who
came perhaps to Chambord with the troops of the Marshal of Saxe. “Le Navarrais”
as it was called, was built during the 1760’s as a “villegiature d’ete” (summer
residence) with open galleries to the Loire. There is a salon in particular, the
“chambre de Perse,” decorated in an Italian architectural style with fresh oil
paintings that evoke mythological scenes within a setting of ruins. These
paintings are said to belong to Claude Robin, a Parisian painter. Chateau de
Colliers was restored by architect Blesois Amiot between 1911 and 1913 and has
been in the family of its present owners since 1779. All the rooms are very nice
and tastefully decorated. The rooms situated on the back side looking with a
view of the Loire River, are surely the highest on demand. The location of this
chateau is extremely convenient to visit a good portion of the Loire Valley. |
