Salle des Blasons, Chateau d'Amboise
Salle des Blasons, in an attic above the Charles VIII wing, renovated 19th century, with wooden roof structure resembling a ship's upturned keel, at the Chateau d'Amboise, a medieval castle which became a royal residence in the 15th century and was largely reworked in the 15th and 16th centuries, on the River Loire, at Amboise, Indre-et-Loire, Centre, France. The name comes from the painted coats of arms along the apex of the ceiling. The chateau is listed as a historic monument and is part of the Loire Valley UNESCO World Heritage Site.
