A symbol of the French monarchy, the Château de Versailles is one of the main French tourist attractions. Every year, it attracts more than 7 million visitors from all over the world to contemplate the splendour of the Versailles estate, made up of the Château, the gardens, the Trianons, the Grand Canal and the park. The Château is located in Versailles in the Yvelines, southwest of Paris. Access from the city is through the majestic Place d'Armes. The Château was the residence of the kings of France Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI, from 1682 to the revolution of 1789. The beginnings of its construction came under the reign of Louis XIII who decided to build a first hunting lodge. The Castle consists of several buildings connected by a single architectural harmony. With a surface area of 63154 m2, it is composed of no less than 2,300 pieces, including currently 1,000 pieces dedicated to the museum. The Parc du Château has a total area of 815 ha, of which 93 ha house the famous gardens designed by André Le Nôtre, gardener of the king. Several major elements are part of the park: Le Petit et le Grand Trianon, Le Hameau de la Reine, Le Grand et le Petit Canal, the Swiss water room, an orangery, more than 200 statues, fountains… The « Château de Versailles » houses « Le Grand Appartement du Roi » (the big king’s flat) and its 7 rooms each decorated on the theme of a god, the Queen’s apartments (which were notably those of Marie-Antoinette), and the magnificent Hall of Mirrors, 73 meters long and illuminated by 17 windows and 350 mirrors. Numerous works of art (statues, paintings, tapestries, porcelain, pieces of furniture, etc.) reinforce the appeal of this unique and exceptional place. The Château de Versailles is also a Royal Opera, the Royal Chapel and many attractions and shows. The Opera Royal hosts a program of classical music and theatre. The Royal Chapel is a venue for concerts. The Hall of Mirrors hosts the Royal Serenade show. In the park, the Musical Gardens are an opportunity to enjoy the place in music. And finally, the enchantment of the Musical Waters magnifies the fountains and gardens, marveling young and old. Coming to Versailles is easy. Three train stations serve the city of Versailles and its castle, departing from Paris Montparnasse, Paris Saint Lazare or via the RER. It is also possible to come by car and parking are available. The Château de Versailles is also accessible from Paris by bus from the Pont de Sèvres. The Parc du Château de Versailles is open to the public free of charge for walks and picnics in an enchanting setting.
