About this experience

Napoleon famously described the Château de Fontainebleau as, "the work of centuries, the home of kings".

Originally established as a hunting lodge in the 12th century, it was upgraded into a Renaissance-style château in 1538. Successive kings expanded on the castle in the following years.

You have the opportunity to experience the culmination of 800 years of finest paintings, furnishing, tapestries, décore and objets d’art. Totalling 1500 rooms, Château de Fontainebleau’s stunning interiors result in a seemingly endless series of sumptuous galleries, halls and boudoirs, each more ornate than the last. 

Highlights:

• Gardens in both the French and English styles
• The only Napoleonic Throne room still in existence
• Napoleon I Museum, the Paintings Gallery, the Furniture Gallery and the Chinese Museum
