Châlus ((オック語:Chasluç)) is a commune in the Haute-Vienne department in the Limousin region in western France. ==History== Richard I of England was besieging Châlus in 1199 when Pierre Basile wounded him with a crossbow bolt; Richard died of the wound. In 1275-1280, Géraud de Maumont built a second castle, Châlus Maulmont, in front of Châlus Chabrol. Chateau Châlus Maulmont was damaged extensively during the French Revolution, and was dismantled in 1790, then used as a prison. The tower of Châlus Maulmont collapsed on March 20, 1994.〔(Chalus Maulmont on www.culture, data base Memoire )〕 By 1745, the first map, in the 1/8628th, of Châlus is established to appear in the atlas of Trudaine for the majority of Limoges, with the portion of road at the level of La-Ribière going to Châlus of the Big road from Limoges to Périgueux 〔Map of Châlus of the atlas of Trudaine (On www.culture.gouv.fr )〕 and with the portion of road reaching the majority of Périgord.〔Map from Chareille to Firbeix of the atlas of Trudaine on the Archim data base of (ministère de la culture )〕 T. E. Lawrence, who would later be known as Lawrence of Arabia, celebrated his 20th birthday at the former ''Grand Hôtel du Midi, Place de la Fountain'', on August 16, 1908, whilst tracing the route of Richard I of England, on a cycling tour of France in preparation for his thesis: ''The Influence of the crusades on the European military architecture at the end of the XIIth century''. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Châlus」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
