Noël au Château du Lude
CLEBRATE CHRISTMAS AT THE CHÂTEAU DU LUDE !
26th December to 3rd January
A visit in Christmas colours
Discover with your family the soft and warm atmosphere of the Christmas festivities at the castle, in the tradition of yesteryear. In this living family home, the living rooms are lit by candles and the decorations consist largely of plants collected in the park throughout the season. Hydrangeas, pine cones, sedum, fragon and other mosses highlight the abundance of nature’s resources. They magnify the nativity scene and the Christmas tree, as well as the dinner table.
Activities for the family
Every day, the visit is punctuated with several activities :
- Souvenir photo in the armchair of Santa Claus (various accessories are available)
- Drawing workshop in the library. The children make a drawing to Santa Claus, which will be sent to him with the mailbox he left at the castle.
On Sunday 27th December, special activities awaits the families:
- Christmas snack (hot chocolate, Christmas cake)
- Creative workshop in the stables.
