The Royal Monastery of Brou is a significant example of late Gothic and Renaissance architecture in France. Commissioned in 1509 by Margaret of Austria, Duchess of Savoy, it served as a collegiate church and mausoleum for her and her husband Philibert II, Duke of Savoy. Construction spanned several decades, concluding in the mid-16th century. The monastery complex comprises a church, cloister, and several chapels, richly decorated with sculptures and paintings reflecting the artistic trends of the period. It’s considered a masterpiece of Burgundian Gothic art and was designated as a historical monument in 1840. Today it functions as a museum displaying fine art collections alongside its architectural significance.
