IIRC, Richard I is buried in Rouen.

No, he’s buried at Fontevrault.

Further investigation shows that his heart was buried in Rouen, and the rest of him in Fontrevault. There is a tomb effigy in both places. The heart has since been moved to the municipal museum in Rouen.

[APB]

You’re right about the heart. Here’s a picture of that monument.

Could you (or whoever told you this rumor) be thinking about King George I?

George’s ignorance of the English language and customs actually became the cornerstone of his style of rule: leave England to it’s own devices and live in Hanover as much as possible.
