The Château de Montsoreau is a Renaissance style castle directly built in the Loire riverbed in the small market town of Montsoreau, in the Maine-et-Loire département of France, in close proximity to Saumur, Chinon, Fontevraud-L'abbaye et Candes-Saint-Martin. The château de Montsoreau has an exceptional position at the confluence of two rivers, the Loire and the Vienne, and at the meeting point of three historic regions: Anjou, Poitou and Touraine.
