If you are not satisfied with this photo gallery, don't miss the opportunity to visit the Cathedral Basilica in Saint-Denis. You will discover a whole panoply of French History with the recumbents of the most famous kings. But it is also an opportunity to learn more about lesser-known sovereigns who had a short reign such as Philippe IV le Bel or François II of Valois Angoulême. Charles Martel's recumbent represents him with crown and sceptre as if he had been king.
