Les trois Mousquetaires ⚔️

How many musketeers in the Three Musketeers? 🤺👑 -


Salut à tou.te.s,


Saviez-vous que d’Artagnan, le personnage principal — et le quatrième Mousquetaire — des « Trois Mousquetaires » d’Alexandre Dumas, a réellement existé ? De plus, sa tombe aurait enfin été découverte aux Pays-Bas ! C’est logique pour ceux qui savaient qu’il était mort à la bataille de Maastricht en 1673… Je l’ignorais. Mais ça m’a donné envie d’en savoir plus !


Did you know that d'Artagnan, the main character—and the fourth Musketeer—of Alexandre Dumas's "The Three Musketeers," actually existed? What's more, his tomb has finally been discovered in the Netherlands! It makes sense for those who knew he died at the Battle of Maastricht in 1673… I didn't. But it made me want to learn more!
