The role of this Centre is to inform the public of the specific nature of the natural and cultural heritage of this region of 141 parishes and 181,000 residents. The official inauguration took place on 17 May 2008 and was attended by Yves Dauge, Chairman of the Park, Jacques Auxiette, President of the Pays de la Loire Region, François Bonneau, President of the Centre Region and Bernard Hagelsteen, Prefect of the Pays de la Loire Region.

The Park Centre gives you the chance to explore, in a fun and interactive way, the Regional Natural Park and its region: installations detailing the changing landscapes of the Loire valley over time, temporary exhibitions (currently focusing on the living cultural landscape of the world heritage Loire Valley), a resource centre, shop and information on the region's sites and activities.

Loïc Bidault, Directeur du Parc, présente les installations.

Not only was the building constructed according to HQE (High Environmental Quality) principles, but it was also designed to be economical in its energy consumption (hemp insulation, wood pellet boiler, etc.).
