Langeais, town, west-central France, Indre-et-Loire département, Centre région, on the right bank of Loire River. It has a 15th-century château, notable as a fine example of pre-Renaissance architecture. The ruins of a keep first built there by Fulk III Nerra, count of Anjou, still stand in the park. The château was built for Jean Bourré, minister of Louis XI, and Charles VIII of France and Anne of Brittany were married there in 1491. The château consists of two wings at right angles; the main wing, flanked by two massive towers, has a gate with a drawbridge and a donjon. The facades on the courtyard, heralding the Renaissance, are less severe than the exterior walls. Pop. (1999) 3,865; (2014 est.) 4,341.
