I'm doing a report on the Chateaux de Chambord, and I need to know if there are any memorable or famous events that took place at this castle, as well as some of the famous people that lived there, as I have found some conflicting information in these areas. Thanks!

The Michelin Green Guides are always good for a potted history of the major French monuments. The guide to the Chateau of the Loire devotes two pages to the history of Chambord.
