Collegiate Church of Saint-Denis

The church of St Florentin was built at the request of Louis XI (1461-1483) so that the castle church would cease to be a parish church, for fear of disease. The roof of the bell tower was modified in the Renaissance style at the beginning of the 16th century, and major restoration work was carried out in 1876 when the wooden vault was replaced by a stone vault.

The Chapel of Saint-Hubert was built and sculpted between 1491 and 1496 by Flemish artists in the pure flamboyant gothic style in white tuff on the initiative of Charles VIII (1483-1498). The chapel was later used as an oratory for Anne of Brittany, before becoming the presumed final resting place of the body of Leonardo da Vinci, who died in Amboise in 1519.

The Chapel of St John is the only remaining part of a monastery of the Order of St John of Jerusalem built by the Knights Hospitallers around 1175. Other buildings, to the north and south, were attached to this chapel.
