In the heart of the Seine-et-Marne département, the Château de Blandy-les-Tours is far less well known than the famous nearby châteaux of Versailles or Vaux-le-Vicomte. Yet this historic monument bears witness to a rich past. For the fifth year running, the château invites young and old alike to discover its history and that of the Viscounts of Melun, by taking part in L'Héritage des Vicomtes, an immersive sound and light show.

From July 4 to August 30, 2025, relive the history of the Château de Blandy-les-Tours from the castle's inner courtyard, where the great events that have marked the history of the site are recounted. Every evening, as night falls, the castle courtyard lights up with the Lumières de Blandy.

The gates open at 8.30pm, giving you the chance to explore the entire château, its various rooms and the covered walkway that surrounds the medieval building. This is your chance to discover the newly laid flagstones and immerse yourself in the history of this monument with its rich past.

Given the time of the show, the question of dinner arises. You can either opt for one of the three restaurants surrounding the Château de Blandy (but remember to make a reservation). Or bring your own picnic to enjoy on the grass. Of course, you'll need a tablecloth to sit on and relax while you wait for the show to start. Some bring their own folding chairs for even greater comfort. There's also a small refreshment bar withhomemade ice creams for the hungry and thirsty.

Then it's time for the show, which combines actors on stage with sound and light projections on the facades surrounding the inner courtyard. The magic happens, and you're carried away by the history of the place, through its various sovereigns, its splendors and battles, right up to its abandonment and restoration. In short, it's the perfect way to spend an unforgettable moment, with your partner, friends or family.

Don't miss this beautiful sound and light show in a medieval castle, a magical event to be enjoyed this summer in Seine-et-Marne! Tickets for the event open on May 21, 2025.
