Residence for the French monarchs from Louis VII to Napoleon III, it was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1981. Hunting ground of the kings, the forest later became an arcadia for the people. Jadwiga Bobrowska will talk about the history of the palace and the forest and give you practical tips about how to get there and what to see.
