Clippiacum, Roman palace in Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine, France

The palace stands on elevated ground overlooking the Seine River, with archaeological evidence of ancient vineyards in the surrounding area.

King Clotaire II established his principal residence and court at Clippiacum in 614, marking the beginning of its significance as a royal estate.

The palace grounds include a chapel erected to commemorate Saint Ouen, who died there in 684, attracting numerous pilgrims through the centuries.

The archaeological site contains remains of Roman architecture, with guided tours available through local historical organizations that explain the palace's evolution.

Jean le Bon inherited the estate and renamed it Noble-Maison, establishing the Order of the Star there in 1352.
