About this artwork
François I built the Château de Villers-Cotterêts as a hunting palace in the forest of Retz, and here in 1539 he signed the famous ordinance that made French the language of law and administration. The château fell into long decline, then rose again in a vast restoration. It reopened in 2023 as the Cité internationale de la langue française, a palace given to the French language.
