"Dalbret: A Royal Legacy Unveiled" Step back in time to the birthplace of a king, Dalbret. This historic town holds tales of power and resilience that shaped the course of history. It was here, in the heartland of France, where Henri IV first drew breath, destined to become one of the most influential monarchs. The Battle of Agincourt echoes through the ages as a testament to courage and valor. In 1773, William Walker captured this pivotal moment on canvas, immortalizing the clash between English and French forces. But it wasn't just kings who left their mark on Dalbret's tapestry. Jeanne d'Albret, Queen of Navarre, stood tall amidst political turmoil. Her unwavering dedication to her Huguenot soldiers is etched forever in an engraving depicting her addressing them with passion and determination. As we delve deeper into history's embrace, we discover Jeanne d'Albret alongside her mother Marguerite de Navarre – two formidable women shaping their era with intellect and grace. A glimpse into Jeanne d'Albret's personal life reveals a stunning carved oak bedstead that once cradled her dreams and aspirations. Created by Edwin Foley in 1910, this masterpiece stands as a symbol of regality intertwined with artistic craftsmanship. It also boasts bountiful orchards yielding succulent pear varieties like Pyrus communis – nature's gift adorning royal tables throughout centuries past. Jeanne d'Albret herself remains an enigmatic figure; queen regnant from 1555 until her passing in 1572. She was not only a daughter but also a mother – giving birth to none other than King Henry IV himself (later known as Henry III of Navarre). Intrigue fills every corner when Henri d'Albret meets his beloved Marguerite in the enchanting gardens of Alencon.
