There is always something magical about castles. They allow us to escape, to go back in time, to dream, quite simply… And what better than a long weekend or a few days of vacation to set off to (re) discover these enchanting places? As All Saints’ Day is fast approaching, and if you do not yet know which treasures of our French heritage to visit, here are the most photo-photographed French castles on Instagram. And they will be even more beautiful in the fall!

It’s anything but a surprise, the most successful castle on social networks is Versailles. Undoubtedly the best known (in the world), the most majestic, and the most royal, this jewel, built in the 17th century, inseparable from its gardens, forests, and ponds, is the pride of our country. With more than 420.0000 #chateaudeversailles on Instagram, there is nothing more essential!
