A publishing phenomenon, Dan Brown’s #1 best selling novel “The Da Vinci Code” prominently featured Villette as the residence of central character Sir Leigh Teabing, a British royal historian who revealed the secret of the Da Vinci Code, the story of The Holy Grail and the relationship of Jesus and Mary Magdalene at Chateau de Villette (starting in Chapter 52 in the book). The story developed to the surprise discovery in the hayloft of the chateau’s barn and the escape of the characters through Chateau's 185 acres grounds.

Based on the book, the movie was filmed partially at Chateau de Villette by Columbia Pictures/Sony Entertainment staring Tom Hanks, Ian McKellen and Audrey Tautou with Oscar-winning Director Ron Howard teaming up with Brian Grazer, Akiva Goldsman and former Sony Pictures Chairman-CEO, John Calley’s production company. It was released worldwide on May 19, 2006.

A stay at Villette will be both educational and entertaining by its beauty of architecture, history, art and the intrigue of “The Da Vinci Code” story.
