The dungeon of this château was used as a prison right up until 1926. The 36-metre climb to its summit is breathless work, but the view from the top is over the beautiful buildings which make up the Chancery. The Chancery houses a permanent exhibition, "Town of Art and History". An absolute must when visiting Loches, one of the "Most beautiful Detours of France" at the foot of the dungeon lies a secret garden, which manages to mix functionality with beauty, with its aromatic plants and vegetable patches. In Vignemont, you can find Troglodyte houses carved out of rock. There are over 600 metres of tunnels to walk through. The limestone that was excavated was also used in the construction of many of the monuments in the region.
