Commentary


François de Bourbon-Vendôme, duc de Beaufort est le second fils de César de Vendôme et de Françoise de Lorraine. Né en 1616, il est militaire et participe à la campagne de Flandre entre 1635 et 1640. Infidèle, il est emprisonné à Vincennes dont il s’échappa en 1648 pour devenir le “Roi des Halles” et se battre au Faubourg Saint-Antoine. Après la Fronde, il devient surintendant général de la navigation et écrase les pirates algérois en Méditerranée en 1665. Il disparaît en portant secours à Candie assiégée par les Turcs.

Historical background


VENDÔMOIS - VENDÔME

Made up of the Vendôme region and the Loir Valley, Vendômois was confiscated from the English by Philippe Auguste and attached to the royal domain in 1214. Erected as a duchy in 1515 for the house of Bourbon, it was given to César de Bourbon, natural son of Henri IV and Gabrielle d'Estrées. The duchy was definitively attached to the Crown in 1712.
