The Terrifying Final Days of Louis XIV

In his final weeks, the most powerful monarch in European history became a living nightmare. The Sun King—who had dazzled the world with absolute power and divine authority—spent his last days trapped in agony as his body literally rotted while he was still alive. This is the shocking true story of how Louis XIV's leg turned black with gangrene, how the stench became so overwhelming that servants fled Versailles, and how the god-king who built an empire was reduced to a decomposing corpse begging for death. Witness the collapse of royal mythology through the most horrifying royal death in history—a reminder that no earthly power can escape the democracy of mortality. Based on documented historical accounts from the French court archives.
