Question

PARIS PROJECT

Outline of monument in French: Salomon de Brosse

Qui: Queen Marie de Medici

Que: Today the Salomon de Brosse is used for tourism. The palace was used as a royal residence up until the time of the revolution, when it served as a prison for a short time. The palace took up its final incarnation as home of the French Senate in 1804. The gardens later opened to the public. Today the Queen Mother might see a young French family with a stroller and bicycle walking through the park, or Parisians visiting among the chairs lining the flowerbeds and pools.

Quand: The Salom de Brosse began construction in 1610. Baroque style fountain added its final touch in 1624.

Qu: Luxembourg Gardens (translate to French)

Pourquoi: The Salomon de Brosse was built so Queen Marie de Medici could mourn her husband’s death- to turn her negatives into positives.
