Palace of Versailles

Palace of Versailles

The Palace of Versailles is one of the most famous landmarks not only in France, but also in the world. It is a truly unique historical treasure for the entire planet and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The palace and park ensemble is at the same time an ancient royal residence, a historical museum and a functioning state building, which hosts the joint sessions of the National Assembly and the Senate.
The palace was built by Louis XIV (“the sun king”) in the 17th century, in the city of Versailles (19 km west of Paris).
From 1682 to 1789 it was the official French royal residence. It was only in 1801 that Versailles received the status of a museum and was open to visitors. In 1837, the Museum of French History opened at the Palace of Versailles.
The area of the palace and park complex is 63,000 square meters and includes 2,300 rooms. It includes several “small palaces” and the largest park in Europe.
The beauty and luxury of the Palace of Versailles amazes the imagination. Not for nothing – most of the palaces of Europe during the Renaissance were built under the influence of Versailles.
The palace truly became a symbol of excessive and irrational spending of the state budget during the peak of the absolute monarchy.
Mirror gallery, state apartments of the king, apartments of the queen, 70 staircases, 2000 windows, thousands of paintings, engravings and furniture. All this was custom-made by the best artists and architects and all this is imbued with luxury and grandeur. For hundreds of years, each of the French monarchs sought to contribute to the development of the palace and park of Versailles. The result of their efforts was the current status of the majestic and luxurious palace of the Sun King.
If you are already in Paris, remember that without visiting the Palace of Versailles you will not fully understand France and understand its history. An excursion to Versailles will immerse you in the atmosphere of Renaissance art and royal luxury.
