To mark the momentous occasion half a millennium later, an extraordinary concert took place in 2019 on the castle's rooftop terrace-as breathtaking a venue as we've ever seen!-to look back on 500 years of cultural history that had seen the likes of Leonardo da Vinci, Louis XIV, Molière, Lully, and others fall in love with the one-of-a-kind castle.

Plunge into the history of this awe-inspiring edifice with Christophe Rousset's world-renowned Les Talens Lyriques, Denis Raisin Dadre's Doulce Mémoire, and Louis Castelain's Parnasse français, featuring big-name soloists: sopranos Véronique Gens and Sophie Karthäuser, baritones Jean-Sébastien Bou and Jérôme Boutillier, tenor Emiliano Gonzalez Toro and countertenor Philipp Mathmann, mezzo Lucile Richardot, and pianist Vanessa Wagner.
