Description

The Château de Champigny-sur-Veude is a building constructed from the 16th century to the 17th century, on the initiative of Louis de Bourbon, Prince of La Roche-sur-Yon. It is located in the French department of Indre-et-Loire in the Centre-Val de Loire region.

Today it has largely disappeared and all that survives of it are the former outbuildings, the present "château", and the Sainte-Chapelle.
