Tour de l'Horloge or clock tower at dawn, built 1200 by Jean sans Terre as the castle entrance, aerial view, at the Chateau de Chinon or Forteresse royale de Chinon, on the Vienne river, Indre-et-Loire, France. On the left are the logis royaux or royal apartments, built c. 1370 by the duc d'Anjou, now restored. The chateau was founded in the 11th century by Theobald I, count of Blois. King Henry II of England lived and died here in the 12th century and the chateau has been out of use since the late 16th century. The building consists of 3 enclosures (Coudray, Milieu and Saint-Georges) separated by dry moats, and natural defenses on 3 sides with a ditch dug on the 4th. It is listed as a historic monument and part of the Loire Valley UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
