2024 Edition - July 6 to August 25

The third edition of En Direct de l'Histoire ! animated the Château de Meung-sur-Loire throughout the summer of 2024, from July 6 to August 25, daily from 10 AM to 7 PM.

Visitors explored the castle's 25 rooms, from the attic to the dungeons, encountering colorful costumed characters: Marie the bishop's cook, Bonifet the valet with savory anecdotes, and the castle doctor. The Musketeers' swashbuckling show at the Orangery delighted audiences four times a day.

In the park, families enjoyed the free-access ancient games (Trou Madame, skittles, giant tic-tac-toe, ring toss), the mini-farm with its goats, chickens, sheep, and donkey, as well as the Knight's Trail with its suspended nets and trampolines in the trees.
