explanation: Though existed since Roman period, Chantilly began to develop when the last of Orgemont family bequeathed in 1484 the domain to his nephew Guillaume of Montmorency, because his son, Anne de Montmorency served as constable for 6 French kings. The small castle built around 1560 contains furniture of 17-18th century belonging to the next castle owner, Conde family, while the park was designed by King's gardener, Andre le Notre in 1663. Located 40km north of Paris, Chantilly also owns a famous horserace course.
