From our trip to Burgandy: The Château of Vauban, Marshal of France in the late 17th century, master-engineer, innovator of fortification, and military adviser to Louis XIV. This is the château he built himself, in his hometown of Bazochs in Burgundy. He used this place to recuperate between the various battles he conducted for Louis XIV.
