Your visit to Fontainebleau will take you to its exceptional forest and its incredible Renaissance castle, which have earned it a place on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Visit the Château de Fontainebleau
Inhabited by the royal family from the 12th to the 19th century, visitors can still explore the decor and furnishings used by Napoleon III and Eugénie after they left the Château de Fontainebleau. The most fully furnished castle in Europe invites you on a 1.5-hour tour through time.
