Valois was one of the most powerful dynasties of the Middle Ages. Their rule began with the curse of the Templars, continued with eternal disputes with England over the right to the French throne, and ended with a bloody civil war. The kings of the Valois dynasty glorified France, making it the strongest state in Europe. They stood at the origins of the French Renaissance and contributed to great achievements in the fields of architecture, art, literature, and science. However, the history of the Valois is full of bloody and dark secrets that are still the subject of discussion.
Why did Charles VI go mad? Was Joan of Arc really his daughter? How many lovers did Francis I have? For what reason did the grandson of King Charles, the Duke of Orleans, spend twenty-five years in captivity? How did Nostradamus's prediction kill Catherine de' Medici's children?
The history of the Valois dynasty with its court intrigues, betrayal, and the burden of the crown.
