VISITING THE CHÂTEAU

  The works exhibited in the central showcases in the Reading Room are difficult to see for wheelchair users.
• The shop and the Graphic Arts Gallery are accessible for people with disabilities. Access via the Capitainerie courtyard.
• Toilets for people with disabilities are available in the château (to access them ask our on-site teams).

Visually impaired visitors:

• Visually impaired visitors are allowed access the château accompanied by their guide dog.

VISITING THE GROUNDS

Visitors with disabilities:

• The grounds are extensive and pathways are irregular. Access is therefore very difficult for people with disabilities.
