This year, the Royal Fortress of Chinon celebrates the world of fairies, inspired by medieval tales and a sense of wonder. Designed as a self-guided trail, the visit gradually reveals these mysterious creatures, hidden among the decorations or moving through the heart of an enchanted forest. The route leads visitors through different scenes from fairy life, where they watch over a magical cradle or prepare their Christmas table, evoking the closeness of these beings to the human world. The discovery continues in the Clock Tower with a presentation of photographs dedicated to the Cottingley Fairies, offering a perspective between history and illusion on these creatures and their power. In the end, perhaps the magic of Christmas has its origins in these fairies — discreetly.
