The fireplace was an interesting design with the curves making a peak in the middle. They did not have a fire going in this castle unlike others we had been to.
The main dining area.
The parlor.
The pattern of the tiles were different than other chateau we had been to. A little bit Eastern Mediterranean.
The ceilings had images of other chateau as well as coat of arms.
In honor of Louis the twelfth, the crowned porcupine which was his emblem was used on the fireplace. There is a whole writeup of the Order of the Porcupine here. No idea if the owner of the chateau at that time, Charles d'Amboise, was a member.
In the basement were rooms for the kitchens. This looks like it was a meat storage room but its purpose is unknown to me.
The little cubbyholes were for personal napkins and such with a warming stove for food to keep it at the right temperature.
This long and large stove had multiple surfaces for different uses and temperatures.
A washing area of some sort.
