The Sun King welcomes you to the Palace of Versailles

The Palace of Versailles, a symbolic monument of the royal era in France, is located in the Yvelines department, in France. Her construction began in 1623, and it has obviously been changed and renovated since then. During the occupation of the castle by the King and his court between the years 1682 and 1789, several great monarchs have succeeded one another : Louis XIV, Louis XV and Louis XVI. The estate, which covers no less than 800 hectares, is now a museum, full of history and art, in homage ” to all the glories of France » as Louis-Philippe declaimed during its inauguration in 1837. Futura takes you on a virtual tour accompanied by the most beautiful photos in the former royal residence.
