Description

Delve into the remarkable life of Charles the Bold, the final Duke of Burgundy from the House of Valois. Born in 1433, Charles harbored a grand ambition transforming Burgundy into an independent kingdom and crowning himself as its king.

His bitter rivalry with Rene II of Lorraine, however, led to his untimely demise in 1477.
