Chateau d'Ussé
We went to visit Chateau d'Ussé on Tuesday 20th May 2008. After the ferry and drive down yesterday we wanted to visit places near to our cottage. The fairy tale chateau with it's many towers and pointed roofs is said to have inspired Charles Perrault to write the fairy tale Sleeping Beauty during the 17th century.
