I read this a long time ago, and I'm at the point where I get the movie and the book mixed up, but I do remember Edmund had a chateau in France at some point. Does anyone know where it was?

He had two houses. I have forgotten the exact street numbers. One was in the Champs Elysees. The other was in Auteuil. He also had a house in Normandy. I don't think they were Chateaus per say, but they were elegant.
Champs Elysées was his residence in the centre of Paris, and Auteuil was his residence outside Paris (the house where Bertuccio dug up the child of Villefort and Mme de Nargone, later to be the "son" of Cavalcanti) and he pruchased the house at Allées de Meilhan in Marseille (where his father died, and he lived).
The house in Normandy I don't recall, but it's possible...
I don't remember any châteaux either... Maybe in the films they called it chateaus...
The house in Normandy was the one to which he took Albert while Fernand was accused of betraying Ali Pasha. At least, I thought it was in Normandy.
In the 2002 film, he lived in a pallace. I honestly can't exactly tell the difference between a "chateaus" and a "pallace" and a "really big apartment".
Yes, I looked it up...
Maybe 'palais' was only for kings like the 'palais du Louvre' and 'le palais de Versailles' and châteaux were meant as residences for the regional nobleman. Like all the châteaux that are now vinyards. And 'really big appartments', well, maybe meant for just staying in a town, like Paris, although then you have to consider that an appartment consisted of 3 floors and was enormous... They were called 'maison', I think...
