The Château des ducs de Bretagne was awarded the Tourisme & Handicap label for being accessible to all four disabilities (motor, sight, hearing, mental). It is a rare example in France of maximum accessibility in a 15th century building. And, though certain restrictions for accessibility linked to the historical monument remain, the Château is working hard to offer the best access possible to all of its content.
Free for visitors with disabilities and guests accompanying them.

A tactile, audio-guide tour of the Château and Musée d’histoire de Nantes
This itinerary has an audioguide made especially for it, as well as tactile and sound devices throughout the different rooms.
63 listening stations are available, each describing the room and themes explored, along with tactile texts with suggestions for what objects to touch, maps in relief, and large print, as well as audio descriptions.
Audioguides can be borrowed from the reception desk. They are free of charge.
This “relatively autonomous” itinerary can be taken without the assistance of museum staff. For your safety and comfort, we recommend you come accompanied. The guest accompanying you can play a vital role by guiding you around the museum, helping you find objects with commentaries, maps, drawings in relief, or what objects to touch.
Guide dogs are allowed.
New: tactile tables allowing guests to discover the collections in rooms 4, 7, 10, 11, 13, 19, and 25 have been developed with the support of the Pays de la Loire Regional Cultural Affairs Department (DRAC) and the French National Accessibility Fund.
If you find the texts too small to read
Magnifying glasses are available at reception.
You can also request an audioguide with commentary.
If you are accompanying a visually impaired or non-sighted person.
At reception, ask for one or two audioguides, with or without headphones, and a map.

Tools in Easy Read (in French)
A booklet has been designed to help visitors get to know the Château and its museum.
Informational cards called “Les œuvres à la loupe” (i.e., “art works up close”) in Easy Read (French) make it easier to discover a selection of museum objects.
The variety of complementary media (simplified maps of Nantes, films, interactive elements, Easy Read cards) and informational tools (touch, image, sound) allow everyone to enjoy the site and its rich content. In temporary exhibitions, Easy Read info cards (in French) and interactive play areas are at your disposal.
