Amboise

As we arrived in Amboise, we couldn't help but be enthralled by its charming beauty. The quaint streets lined with half-timbered houses and the imposing silhouette of the Château d'Amboise perched on a hilltop immediately transported me back in time. After checking into our cozy house, we decided to take a leisurely stroll along the banks of the River Loire, enjoying the peaceful ambiance and admiring the stunning views of the château reflecting on the water.

<p>Amboise and its castle descended through the family to Fulke Nerra in 987. The castle was built on a spur above the river Loire. The strategic qualities of the site were recognised before the medieval construction of the castle, and a Gallic oppidum was built there. In the late 9th century, Ingelger was made viscount of Orléans and through his mother was related to Hugh the Abbot, tutor to the French kings. Ingelgarius married Adelais of Amboise, a member of a prominent family (a bishop and archbishop were her uncles) who controlled Château d'Amboise. He was later made Count of Anjou and his rise can be attributed to his political connections and reputation as a soldier. The Château d'Amboise would pass through Ingelger and Adelais' heirs, and he was succeeded by their son, Fulk the Red. As Fulk the Red expanded his territory, Amboise, Loches, and Villentrois formed the core of his possessions. Amboise lay on the eastern frontier of the Angevins holdings.<br />
