Chateau

POSTED UNDER: Architecture, Europe, History | No Comments »

On our way to southern France we stayed the night in this chateau. Quintessential provincial France.

I also found out that Albert Schweitzer—the 1952 Nobel Peace Prize winner—lived at this chateau for awhile. Supposedly, I stayed in his room (just inside the lower window). The floor is wooden and the walls are pale yellow.
