Seasonal Candlelight Evenings illuminate the château and gardens with two thousand candles alongside water displays.

Reviews
It’s a wonderful castle, with all its surroundings. It’s also kept nice except for the pond in the back of the castle towards the garden (bit full of sleazy water). The inside of the castle is well equipped with all sorts of materials and household items to provide a good idea how rich people lived in these times…
