Leonard da Vinci, the forgotton project : Romorantin.
Leonard da Vinci came to France in 1516 to work for the young king Francis the 1st on a magnificent project :
an ideal city and a magnificent royal palace on the border of the Sauldre river at Romorantin.
Unfortunately leonardo died in 1519 too soon to be able to realize this dream.
New discoveries in local archives have been able to reconsider his last works and assure that the buildings had started.
