La cour, Tapisserie Jules Pansu

The first tournaments were awarded to Geoffroy de Preuilly around the year 1000, but it was especially during the twelfth century that they became very popular. Gathered around the Royal family, the court attends these jousts where members of the great nobility can defend their banners and prove the bravery. These tournaments feature all the medieval characters, withe banquets and dances.
