gdb Posted January 15, 2011 Share #6725 Posted January 15, 2011 Gaal is correct: it is the Chenonceau Castle, and his spelling is correct. Gérard Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaal Posted January 15, 2011 Share #6726 Posted January 15, 2011 Merci Gérard for the confirmation of Chenonceau. Allow me to wait for a confirmation from Jan, so to respect hierarchy in the forum, before posting the next shot. Right now it's 6 am in Vancouver, so it should not be long. Thanks Gaal Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
doubice Posted January 15, 2011 Share #6727 Posted January 15, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Yes, the Great Hall (or Gallery) of Château de Chenonceau is of course correct an Gaal is next - congratulations! During WW I it served as a hospital and during WW II it was used as a way to escape from from the Nazi occupied France to the 'free' Vichy part of France. The river Cher, over which this part of the castle lies, used to form the border between the two parts of France. Best, Jan Welcome, dear visitor!

Olsen Posted January 15, 2011 Share #6728 Posted January 15, 2011 I actually, I thought of this castle when I saw the typical French fireplace. From where the fireplaces at Hearst Castle come from. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best, Jan Sorry, by saying it was the right continent I thought it was clear it was not Greece nor Cyprus nor France. Here is a hint; the country in question shares the same sea with the already mentionned countries; that should be easy. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
