Comment
The last of the great palaces to be built on the banks of the Loire in the 16th century, the Château de Villandry puts the finishing touches to research into the First French Renaissance2 , while also heralding the achievements of Ancy-le-Franc (Burgundy) and Écouen (Île-de-France).The current gardens at Château de Villandry are the result of a patient reconstruction carried out in 1906 by Dr. Joachim Carvallo, based on old drawings and texts by the architect Jacques Androuet du Cerceau, who described a typical 16th-century Renaissance garden. https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Villandry
