Domain note

FRANCOIS I

In 1519, François I undertook the construction of a new royal house at Chambord, in the heart of the game-filled and marshy lands of Sologne. The king followed the progress of the building work with interest, even though he rarely stayed there during his reign. He created a palace in his own image, heir to medieval traditions and Renaissance ideas. For him, Chambord was as much a place of seclusion where he liked to come and hunt with his friends as it was a brilliant architectural creation and a political manifesto. He invited foreign diplomats and, in 1539, his rival Charles V, emperor of the Holy Roman Empire, to dazzle them. At the time of his death in 1547, the chapel wing and the lower enclosure had not yet been completed.
