Photo TidbitsChâteaux de Saumur
By Jim and Emmy Humberd
The Châteaux de Saumur was just across the river from our RV in the Municipal Campsite at Saumur. We'll bet no hotel room offered such a view.
The Châteaux is situated on the side of a hill, south of the Loire. On the grounds just outside and above the Châteaux, a theatre with a couple of dozen benches faced a stage in preparation for musical concerts and other artistic presentations. This is common practice throughout Europe open-air theaters next to castles, cathedrals, in town squares, and even in the Michelangelo designed Piazza del Campidoglio on Capitol Hill, in front of the City Hall in Rome.
