The Allée des Beaux-Monts connects the forest to the Château de Compiègne!
Created in 1810 and completed in 1853 by order of Napoleon III, the alley aimed to reproduce the perspective of Schönbrunn near Vienna, the summer palace of the Austro-Hungarian dynasty of which Marie Louise, the Emperor’s wife was issue.
