Versailles, a must-see in France

The history of the Versailles Palace is unique and very important in French history. Louis XIV conceived of the Château de Versailles as an expression of his omnipotence, and as a representation of the power of the kings of France. At the height of his power, he made Versailles the epitome of superlatives. Today, this immense palace, surrounded by splendid gardens, is one of the most visited monuments in France, just a few kilometres from Paris.

The Château de Versailles is a must-see if you're staying in Paris to discover the history of Louis XIV and Marie-Antoinette, through historical reconstructions and educational exhibitions. To get an idea of what life was like at Court, you need to have seen the 2,300-odd rooms in the château, admired the Hall of Mirrors and the King's and Queen's flats, and strolled along the paths of the landscaped gardens, as more than 10 million visitors do every year. Slip into the intimacy of Marie-Antoinette at the Petit Trianon and the Queen's hamlet, in a world that is both rural and delicate, less ostentatious and particularly poignant.

To fully immerse yourself in the grandeur of Versailles and its aristocratic history, book your tickets during the spring to catch the Grandes Eaux Musicales show. This aquatic and musical spectacle, set to Baroque music, unfolds in the basins and gardens of Versailles in the afternoon. Alternatively, during the summertime, you can experience an extraordinary show on Saturday nights, culminating with fireworks above the Grand Canal. Ensure you reserve your tickets to witness this captivating spectacle.
