I'm leaving for a trip to France on 24 August.  I would like to visit places that Anne Boleyn might have been at while she served in the French court.  Geeky as I am, I'm not quite sure which palaces or chateaus those would be.  Can anyone tell me?  Thanks!!

The Chateau de Blois is mentioned.    Renee of France had as a companion during her Childhood Anne Boleyn and this residence seems to be a favorite of the Royal Family of France at that period. Her Sister Claude Queen of France had Anne in her court and it is mentioned She acted as translator in one source. I hope any of this helps. Please post pictures when you get back! Smiley

Claude of France was married at the Cathedral de Saint Germain I have read and the Chateau was used by the Royal Family

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Saint-Germain-en-Laye

also http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ch%C3%A2teau_de_Fontainebleau  of course Fontainebleau was important to the Court during this period.

I just knew that Anne was lady in waiting of an important French lady, she called her "petite Anne"
but i don't know if for her height or for her age.
