A designated Ville Imperiale ("Imperial City") with its history, chateau, squares and sumptuous Italian-style theatre,

Fontainebleau is a culturally enriching place to visit. Its forest and park also make it an ideal destination for strolling, rambling and rock-climbing. Fontainebleau is a town on the very threshold of Paris whose royal history shines undiminished, a town where life is good. With its magnificent Grand Parquet and hippodrome, it has developed into a major centre of the equestrian arts, hosting events of great renown in the world of horse-riding.

The streets of Fontainebleau, have buildings with sandstone architecture and some 40 listed properties. The absence of large-scale supermarkets (which are banned in this designated Foret d'Exception) means that the town-centre businesses are thriving, unlike in other small, provincial towns.

The second-largest national forest in France, it is concentrated mainly on the municipality of Fontainebleau. Fontainebleau is the largest forest area in the Ile-de-France region and boasts the distinction that more than 98% of its territory is occupied by two national heritage attractions: the chateau of Fontainebleau and the national forest of Fontainebleau.
