A friend has drawn my attention to an article in The Guardian about a proposal to move the bodies of King Charles X, King Louis XIX and Queen Marie-Thérèse from their presnt resting place in Slovenia to St Denis. The article can be read at France calls for remains of King Charles X to be returned from Slovenia
The association with this laudable aim was founded last September and their website can be seen at http://www.leretourdecharlesx.fr - which I have added to the sidebar.

Whatever comes of this initiative it is clear that King Charles and his family, both in life and death, were fated to spend a long time in exile.
