Marie Antoinette Lookout

The plaque at this historic and scenic site reads:
«ASYLUM: A settlement of French royalists, who fled the French Revolution in 1793, was established in the valley directly opposite this marker. It was laid out and settled under the direction of Viscount de Noailles and Marquis Antoine Omer Talon. It was hoped that Queen Marie Antoinette might here find safety. Among many distinguished visitors to this place were Louise Philippe, Duke of Orleans, later King of France, Prince de Talleyrand, Duke de Montpensier and the Duke de la Rochefoucauld-​Liancourt. Marked by the Pennsylvania Historical Commission and the Bradford County Historical Society, 1930.»
(SPOILER ALERT for those that don’t know the story of Marie Antoinette — she didn’t flee the French Revolution to find safety at Asylum. Instead, she was beheaded. And to add to the spoilage, she never actually said «Let Them Eat Cake.»)
This lookout offers both scenic views of the Susquehanna River and French history.
