Manoir du Cloux, the origins of Chateau de Clos Luce<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Visitors strolling through the sumptuous gardens of Chateau de Clos Luce<\/strong> today may find it hard to imagine the landscape of these same grounds six centuries ago. While its neighbor, the Royal Chateau of Amboise,<\/strong><\/a> was still a medieval fortress far removed from the magnificence of its Renaissance<\/strong> decor, the Manoir du Cloux<\/strong> was a walled estate, a former priory, just acquired by Etienne Le Loup<\/strong>, minister to King Louis XI.<\/strong> To say that Etienne made giant strides up the social ladder is an understatement. As a young servant in the service of the sovereign, he made a name for himself with his wit and insight, which attracted the king’s interest. Etienne was promoted to minister, with responsibility for overseeing the construction of the Royal Chateau. However, these sudden privileges weren’t to everyone’s taste, and Etienne Le Loup was soon disliked by the population, losing his royal protection. Le Cloux became part of the royal domain.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

King Charles VIII<\/strong> took possession of the property. He added a majestic oratory in tufa stone to the small red-brick manor house. Bearing the royal coat of arms, fleur-de-lys and ermine tail, this oratory became a place of meditation for the young Queen Anne of Brittany<\/strong>. Forced into marriage at the age of fourteen, the young sovereign rested there after her multiple pregnancies, waiting in vain to offer the king her long-awaited inheritance. When her husband died accidentally on April 7, 1498, Anne left Amboise to join Louis XII<\/strong>, who forced her to marry again. Louise de Savoie took up residence at the Clos Luce<\/strong>, accompanied by her children Marguerite and Fran\u00e7ois, the future Fran\u00e7ois 1er.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

When Fran\u00e7ois 1st<\/strong> met Leonardo da Vinci<\/strong><\/a> in the aftermath of his success at Marignan, it was only natural that he should invite him to settle at Chateau de Clos Luce<\/strong>, where he had spent his childhood. Deprived of a patron since the death of Julien de Medici<\/strong>, Leonardo agreed to make the long journey across the Alps to join this spirited young king and art lover, eager to make his mark on history. Legend has it that the old man crossed the Alps on a mule, accompanied by his faithful servant Battista da Vilanis<\/strong>, and a disciple, Francesco Melzi<\/strong>. In his luggage were some of the world’s most famous works of art, including the iconic Mona Lisa, the Saint Anne and the Saint John the Baptist. Not to mention several thousand parchments devoted to the study of biodiversity, architecture and the art of warfare…<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

In the autumn of 1516, Leonardo da Vinci<\/strong> took up residence at the Chateau de Clos Luce<\/strong>, where he was joined by Mathurine<\/strong>, a local cook and maid. And he set to work, relentlessly. The man who had been named \u201cfirst painter, architect to the king\u201d devoted his days to his research. \u201cHere, Leonardo\u201d, the king told him, \u2018you’ll be free to think and work\u2019. From draining the marshes of Sologne, to plans for an ideal city in Romorantin, to hydraulic studies, his field of research was limitless. He even designed sumptuous festivities for the court, punctuated by light shows, turning himself into a veritable stage director! The king regularly visited the man he nicknamed \u201cmy father\u201d, imbibing his knowledge and insights.<\/p>

Leonardo Da Vinci’s death in Amboise<\/h4>

At the end of April 1519, feeling his last strength failing him, Leonardo da Vinci<\/strong> drew up his will. His estate was to be divided between his adopted son Sala\u00ef<\/strong>, his servants Battista<\/strong> and Mathurine<\/strong>, and his disciple Melzi. He finally died on May 2, 1519, at the age of 67, and expressed his last wish to be buried in Amboise<\/strong>, not far from the Clos Luc\u00e9. Exhumed in the mid-19th century, his presumed remains now rest in the sumptuous Saint Hubert chapel of the Royal Chateau of Amboise.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t
