Get used to this royal feeling as you'll visit Château de Fontainebleau is one of the most visited areas and one of the largest French royal châteaux. It has everything that a tourist needs; a touch of history, a touch of art and a lot of other things that are ready to be discovered. The Palace dates from the medieval age and served as a royal residence for the French kings. Now it is a museum and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The village of Barbizon owes its fame to the 19th-century landscape painters Th eodore Rousseau, Jean-Baptiste Corot, Charles-Francois Daubigny and Jean-François Millet who lived there. Their artistic movement, the Barbizon School (1830 to 1875), was considered a precursor of Impressionism.
