Château de Vincennes

France

The Château de Vincennes is a massive 14th and 17th century French royal fortress in the town of Vincennes, to the east of Paris, now a suburb of the metropolis. Two kings were married at Vincennes in the 1200s, and three kings died here, including Henry V of England, who died from dysentery in 1422. After his fall from grace Nicolas Fouquet was imprisoned in the keep on the orders of Louis XIV.
