"Built by King Louis IX in 998 as a simple hunting lodge in the heart of the "Ile de France," Fontainebleau soon fell into obscurity. It wasn't until Francis I discovered his love for Fontainebleau and elevated it to a royal residence that the palace's true history began, as the ancestral home of the French kings. Henry IV had the complex expanded, and under Napoleon I, the building was extensively restored as the first imperial residence." With these words, a text on the media library's website introduces a 15-minute film (in German) about the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

At the Château de Fontainebleau, the Cascades basin serves as a visual transition between the different levels of the French garden. An essential element during your stroll in the park.

This was one of the locations used for the filming of the 3 Mousquetaires with Vincent Cassel, François Civil, Romain Dursis & Pio Marmai

Today we visit Fontainebleau Castle. We find a parking space not far from the castle and walk past the theater. When we arrive at the gate, the building welcomes us like open arms with its expansive side wings. The castle has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1981. The dimensions of the castle are revealed in the model. The park railway is just arriving and we are in the Cour d’Honneur, the courtyard of honor. While there was a castle here from the 13th century onwards, it was converted into a hunting lodge under Francis I in 1528, probably the first French Renaissance building. https://youtu.be/ChlqR8y6KFk
