Château de Fontainebleau

Chateau de Fontainebleau is one of the oldest castles in France. It dates back to the 12th century and it takes its name from a fountain nearby. The chateau served as a royal palace for more than 700 years for a line of kings. Today, the chateau is a heritage site and a museum.

So turns out everyone on discord goes crazy (/affectionate) for my location scouting

Allow me to summarize my last 8 hours of relentless headcanoning.

Ro’meave castle in O’Khasis = Hohenzollern Castle, Germany

Von Ronsenburg (Rosen’ask) castle in Scaleswind = Ksiaz Castle, Poland

Alliance Assembly on Phoenix Island/MCD Era = Chateau de Fontainebleau [exterior], Parliament of Portugal [interior]

Republic Assembly in Phoenix Drop/MYS Era = Parliament of Hungary [exterior], French Senate Chamber [interior]

New Meteli & Surrounding Countryside/MYS Era = Yorkshire, England

Zvhal Family Ranch in Mystreet, on the outskirts of New Meteli = Yew Tree Farm, Coniston, England

There’s way more pins where these came from

Does anyone know where I might find plans of the chateau de Fontainebleau as it was at the end of the 17th century or beginning of the 18th century? I'm trying to get some context for a letter that the princesse Palantine wrote about her apartments there and trying to figure out where exactly she was living and what sort of amenities were/weren't at Fontainebleau compared to places like Versailles & other 18th century residences.

So far I can only find actual contemporary plans that are from extensive renovations done in 1729 (which defeat the purpose of wanting to see what Fontainebleau was like in 1694!) or from the 19th century.

Hello hello! For your writer asks: 57. what is the last thing that a fic made you google when you were reading it?

Hi Aly!

Good question! I’ve been reading The Cupid Seller by @ishabull and in the second chapter they go to the chateau de Fontainebleau so of course I had to google to see it! It’s hard to say which is prettier, the chateau or Marcus Pike 🤷🏼‍♀️

Thanks for asking!

Asks for fanfic writers
