Closed Mondays in low season
According to the official site, Chambord is closed on Mondays in low season, except during the school holidays of all zones. For January to March 2026 the site named the closed Mondays: 5, 12, 19 and 26 January, 2 February, and 9, 16 and 23 March. For 26 October to 18 December 2026 it does not list them, and we could not confirm which Mondays are closed, so check the calendar if you plan a Monday visit.
What about 2027?
The official site published hours only up to 2 January 2027. The 2026 logic puts high season from the end of March to the end of October, but the exact 2027 dates were not published. Check the official calendar when you plan.
