The Royal Château de Blois is located in the Loir-et-Cher département in the Loire Valley - it is comprised of several buildings constructed from the 13th to the 17th century around the main courtyard. This equestrian statue of Louis XII on the palace facade is in flamboyant Gothic style.
The royal porcupine is the emblem for Louis Xll.
The François I wing of the Château is where Henry III had the Duke de Guise and his brother, the cardinal of Lorraine, assassinated in December 1588. Henry lll was then assassinated by a Dominican monk on the first of August 1589. I am not sure which guy this is, but it doesn't really matter - they all died.
