Chambord Castle was built between 1519-1547.

According to the Chateau de Chambord's web site the dimensions of the castle measures 160 meters by 120 meters. If I did my math correctly then that would make Chambord 200,000 square feet. That is bigger than the Biltmore which is a mere 176,000 square feet. So yeah, it's huge.
