Monastere Royal de Brou

The Royal Monastery of Brou was built between 1506 and 1532 in a lavishly elaborate Flamboyant Gothic style, with some classicizing Renaissance aspects. The tall roof is covered in coloured, glazed tiles. Margaret, her second husband Philibert II, Duke of Savoy, and his mother, Margaret of Bourbon, are all buried in tombs within the church, which have avoided the destruction that most royal tombs in France have suffered.
