Huchepie Manor

Vendôme, 'Art and History'

Built in Gallo-Roman times, upon a hill, crisscrossed by the river Loir, Vendôme became a Duchy in 1515 by the will of Francis I.

Antoine of Bourbon first Duke of Vendome was to be the father of the future king of France: Henry IV, who started the Royal Bourbon dynasty.

The present King of Spain is related to this family.

Nowadays a town of 30 000 inhabitants, Vendôme has done well to maintain its historical gardens and medieval architecture.
