Situated in Maincy - France, discover the famous Vaux le Vicomte Castle, purchased in 1641 by Nicolas Fouquet. Fouquet transformed the estate into a masterpiece whose château and gardens still feature among the most beautiful in France to this day. A work combined from the architect Louis Le Vau, the painter Charles Le Brun and the landscape gardener André Le Notre which resulted in an unparalleled harmony and beauty. Sadly, victim of a plot by jealous courtiers, Fouquet was arrested on the King Louis XIV’s orders and sentenced to life imprisonment in 1661. Vaux-le-Vicomte was therefore closed down, and its treasures seized – tapestries, furniture, paintings, books and rugs… even the orange trees were removed by the King. It took Madame Fouquet ten years to recover the estate, to which she later retired with her eldest son. Take a stroll in the marvellous gardens and walk among the amazing halls of this simply beautiful Castle - Vaux Le Vicomte. Highlights : Tour of Vaux Le Vicomte Discover Vaux Le Vicomte's history Walk among beautiful french architecture Stroll through the marvellous gardens of the Castle Grounds Go down in the undergrounds of the Castle Observe the treasures and art work held in the grand rooms and halls
