The Mystery of the Man in the Iron Mask (17th Century) In 17th-century France, one of Europe’s greatest historical enigmas emerged — a prisoner whose identity remained unknown. He wore an iron (or velvet) mask that concealed his face and was held under the strictest secrecy. Only a few individuals close to King Louis XIV knew of his existence. For centuries, people have speculated about his identity. Was he the king's brother? A political rival? A dangerous enemy of the state? Despite countless theories and investigations, the true story has never been definitively uncovered. Fun fact: This mystery inspired Alexandre Dumas to write his famous novel "The Man in the Iron Mask," turning the legend into a global phenomenon.
