You have no idea of the importance of the castle until you have stood in front of it: a magnificent complex with a wonderful park. Compiegne had great royal times before the name was much later overshadowed by the armistice in 1918.

In good weather, the garden is peaceful for relaxing or strolling. The cherry on the cake is inside the castle: beautiful reconstructions and conservations
