Fontainbleau

//History// Originally called Fontaine Belle Eau or Fontaine Belleaue, Fontainebleau settled on its current name in 1169. This hamlet was endowed with a royal hunting lodge and a chapel by Louis VII in the middle of the twelfth century. A century later,Louis also called Saint Louis, had a country house and a hospital constructed there. Philip the Fair was born there in 1268 and died there in 1314. In all, thirty-four sovereigns, from  Louis , (1081–1137) to Napoleon III (1808–1873), spent time at Fontainebleau. The connection between the town of Fontainebleau and the French monarchy was reinforced with the transformation of the royal country house into a true royal palace, the  Palace of Fountainbleau . This was accomplished by the great builder-king,  Francis I
