Photo "Brissac-Quincé (Maine-et-Loire) Le château de Brissac. Le château appartient à la famille des Cossé-Brissac depuis 1502. Ce château est remarquable par sa hauteur. C'est dans ce château que le 13 août 1620, eut lieu la réconciliation de Louis XIII avec sa mère, Marie de Médicis, veuve d'Henri IV. Après la mort d'Henri IV, Louis XIII est couronné roi de France à Reims le 17 octobre 1610. Louis XIII n'a que 9 ans. Le pouvoir est alors assuré par sa mère Marie de Médicis, qui gouverne le royaume comme régente au nom de son fils. Marie de Médicis et son fils Louis XIII s'entendent mal. Marie de Médicis laisse gouverner ses favoris, Concino Concini et Léonora Galigaï. Louis XIII s'indigne de voir Concini, un étranger incapable selon lui, usurper le gouvernement de son État, tandis qu'on le relègue dans un coin du Louvre. Afin d'accéder au pouvoir, Louis XIII fait assassiner Concino Concini à coups de pistolet par le baron de Vitry, capitaine des gardes, le 24 avril 1617. Louis XIII exile sa mère Maris de Médicis à Blois. Le 22 février 1619, Marie de Médicis s'échappe du château de Blois et lève une armée contre son fils déclenchant la "première guerre de la mère et du fils". Le Traité d'Angoulême du 30 avril, négocié par Richelieu, signé le 30 juillet 1619, réconcilie officiellement le fils et la mère. Une faction de grands seigneurs se forme alors autour de Marie de Médicis. Le 4 juillet 1620, Louis XIII prend alors le parti de la guerre, c'est la "deuxième guerre de la mère et du fils". Les troupes du roi écrasent l'armée de Marie de Médicis à la bataille des Ponts-de-Cé. La réconciliation se fera à Brissac. The castle belongs to the family of Cosse-Brissac since 1502. This castle is remarkable for its height. It is in this castle August 13, 1620, took place the reconciliation of Louis XIII and his mother, Marie de Medici, widow of Henri IV. After the death of Henri IV, Louis XIII is crowned King of France in Reims October 17, 1610. Louis XIII was only nine years old. The power is then provided by his mother Marie de Medici, who ruled the kingdom as regent on behalf of his son. Marie de Medici and her son Louis XIII hear well. Marie de Medici rule leaves his favorite Concini and Leonora Galigai Concino. Louis XIII unworthy of Concini see a stranger incapable according to him, usurping the government of his state, and that relegates in a corner of the Louvre. To gain power, Louis XIII Concino Concini assassinated with a pistol by the Baron de Vitry, captain of the guards, April 24, 1617. Louis XIII exile his mother Maris de Medicis to Blois. February 22, 1619, Marie de Médicis escaped the castle of Blois and raised an army against his son triggering the "first war of the mother and son." The Treaty of Angoulême April 30, brokered by Richelieu, signed July 30, 1619, officially reconciled son and mother. A faction of nobles then forms around Marie de Medici. On 4 July 1620, Louis XIII takes advantage of the war, it is the "War of the mother and son." The king's troops crushed the army of Marie de Medici at the Battle of Ponts-de-Ce.
