Rick Steves' Europe
Fontainebleau, France: Royal Château
Clip: Season 8 Episode 804 | 3m 5sVideo has Closed Captions
Fontainebleau is unrivaled among France’s palaces as a showcase of French history.
It seems every king, queen, and emperor since has loved this palace — Louis XIII was born here, Louis XV was married here — but Fontainebleau has more Napoleon Bonaparte connections than any other palace.
