Empress in Normandy Aids Poor Then Dies Bathing Tale
The murdered empress of Austria, exiled in Normandy in 1875, lived at Chateau Sassetot with her daughter Archduchess Valerie. She bathed 36 times over two months paying 3,000 francs, chatted with locals, rode alone, and funded parish and village needs. A horse accident near Petites Dalles prompted royal concern, and she later left amid mourning from Norman peasants. The tale echoes Paris Figaro notes time and tide wait for no man.
