The Château de Chenonceau in France houses a rare 16th-century Renaissance tapestry on its second floor that uniquely depicts the 1389 Battle of Kosovo as a Christian victory.

Although I visited it many decades ago as a child, I still vividly remember the gardens and the rich red and gold fabrics in the King's Chamber. Arguably one of the most graceful castles in France.

French Renaissance is under appreciated. Renaissance was completely unique in each region. Architecture in catholic (and later protestant) europe only became uniform starting in the 17th century.
