There has been a defensive castle at Montsoreau since 996. The present Château was built in 1450 and has been fought over for centuries and was once under the ownership of Henry II Plantagenet, King of England (1156 - 1170). Alexandre Dumas, the famous author of the Count de Montecristo and the Three Musketeers, immortalised Montsoreau in one of his most celebrated novels, the Dame de Monsoreau, first published in 1846. Today, Montsoreau attracts plenty of visitors who come to see the Château and visit the Contemporary Art Museum now housed within its walls.
