Fontainebleau Highlights

Fontainebleau's history spans eight centuries of French monarchy, centered on the Renaissance and Classical architecture of its UNESCO-listed palace. Beyond the royal apartments, the region preserves the 19th-century Barbizon School of landscape painting through preserved artist studios like those of Jean-François Millet and Rosa Bonheur. The surrounding forest, once a royal hunting ground, features dramatic sandstone rock formations and elevated viewpoints at Gorges d'Apremont and Croix du Calvaire, alongside historic religious sites like the 11th-century Saint-Pierre church in Avon.
