WHERE PERRAULT’s TALES COME ALIVE
At the magical Castle of Breteuil, discover characters from Perrault’s tales like Tom Thumb, Sleeping Beauty, Puss in Boots and Little Red Riding Hood.
In the Stables, a story teller recounts the tale of Puss in Boots. She is at the Château all Sundays since Easter until November the 11th, and each day during school Holidays (starting normally at 4:30pm).
Built in the year 1600 and decorated principally in the 18th century, the Château of Breteuil is located 35 km (22 miles) southwest of Paris in the heart of the renowned Valley of Chevreuse.
The Breteuil family served the Kings of France as military officers, ambassadors and ministers throughout the 17th and 18th centuries. The influence of the Château of Versailles is strong, both in the interior décor and the formal French gardens."- Waxwork characters created by the Musée Grévin represent this important family, closely linked to the history of France.
Cost is 1400 Euros for a party of 2 to 4, including round-trip private minibus transportation from your Paris hotel, an expert guide, castle, gardens and stables tours. Meals are extra.
