Table du Roi, Historic monument in Fontainebleau Forest, France.

The Table du Roi consists of a sandstone surface measuring 2.3 meters in length, 1.33 meters in width, and 24 centimeters in thickness.

In 1723, Monsieur de la Faluère, Grand Master of Waters and Forests of Île-de-France, established this table as a resting place for hunting parties.

Forest users gathered every May first to present tributes, including a ham from the abbess of Lys and a cake from a local baker.

The site, freely accessible in the Fontainebleau Forest, is located at coordinates 48°28'59 N and 2°39'56 E.

The table features a relief inscription showing its foundation date and served as a finish line for cyclo-cross championships in the early 20th century.
