Let me take you on a journey through two remarkable French châteaux that have been lovingly restored to their former glory.

Imagine stepping back in time to the late 14th century, when Duke Louis of Orléans first built the Palace of Pierrefonds. Though it fell into ruins by the 17th century, it was reborn under the vision of Napoleon III and architect Eugène Viollet-le-Duc. With meticulous care and architectural expertise, they recreated the château in all its medieval splendor.

Next, we visit the Palace of Compiègne, a grand structure with a rich history spanning the reigns of Louis XV, Louis XVI, Napoleon I, and Napoleon III. This neo-classical masterpiece served as a hub of court life and political power, boasting exquisite interior decorations and furniture that reflect the opulence of the French royal and imperial residences.
