Today's castle Chenonceau... Great history of this castle for WWI and WWII as well as the families that owned it back in the 14 and 1500s

Yeah, Chenonceau would be my pick. Tucked away and not overly huge - great little weekend getaway pad.

If you like chateaus and such, the Dordogne Valley further south is awesome as well. Lots of caves (e.g. Lascaux) and winding, wooded country roads. And way fewer tourists.

Hear the wine in the Loire is pretty good…

Brother, best fries I’ve ever had was at a restaurant in the French countryside en route to Germany after a military service at the Meuse Argonne Cemetery. They were served family style exactly as in your pic, along with a plate of buttered steaks.
