About

The Palais Jacques Coeur was home to King Charles VII’s right-hand man, the inconceivably wealthy Jacques Cœur. He approached the interior design of this Gothic home with a ‘no-expense-spared’ attitude, which is still evident today.

Think under-floor heating, extravagant stone sculptures, and more rooms than he knew how to fill.

Come and explore both a cultural monument and a Bourges institution – and undoubtedly one of the most beautiful examples of Gothic civic architecture in France!
