The Three Musketeers is a colossal production, in every sense of the word. The most expensive French film of the year after Miraculous and Asterix and Obelix, The Middle Kingdom, thousands of technicians were called upon to bring 17th century France to life. And of course, the sets needed special care to match the atmosphere. The director, Martin Bourboulon, decided to shoot the majority of the film in natural settings.
Of course, the historical places were privileged. Thus, you can discover in the film places such as the castle of Fontainebleau, the hotel of Invalides or the Court of the Louvre. But Paris was not the only setting for The Three Musketeers. In Île-de-France, the streets of Saint-Germain-en-Laye saw the cameras roll, as did the Royaumont Abbey in the Val-d'Oise.
The Île-de-France was not the only place where The Three Musketeers was filmed. The team traveled all over France, starting with the Grand Est and Brittany, where cities such as Troyes or Saint-Malo were used as sets. The cathedral of Saint-Etienne de Meaux was also used as a filming location.
