What to expect

Now a UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Château de Fontainebleau is one of the largest, most beautiful and yet still the least well-known of the France's great chateaux. A royal palace, and known as the "house of the centuries", all of France's rulers have left their mark on Fontainebleau, from Francis I to Louis XV, and from Henry IV to Napoleon III. Napoleon Bonaparte said of Fontainebleau that it was a home fit for kings. In architectural terms, the chateau embraces the reigns of every French king and emperor. It all means that when you tour the Château de Fontainebleau, it's like taking a walk through the centuries. You will absorb the charm of a palace that is at once grand and quiet, being surrounded by the thick hunting forest where the famous rocks of Fontainebleau can be found.

L'intérieur est magnifique avec de nombreux meubles d'époque, des tapisseries et des tableaux. Les balades sont très agréables dans le parc du château.

Un château à visiter.
Dommage, en travaux (nécessaires).
Donc nous n avons pas pu tout voir.
Superbes parcs.
