Palace of Versailles

The chateau and gardens count among the most prestigious monuments of the world’s artistic heritage, and are certainly the finest and most complete achievement of 17th century French art. Former residence of the ‘Sun King’ Louis XIV, this sumptuous royal palace was home to three of France’s most illustrious Kings for over 100 years. The guided tour of the palace includes the State Apartments of the King and Queen, Royal Chapel and Hall of Mirrors, a richly decorated gallery which boasts 357 mirrors, french bay windows and crystal chandeliers.

La Galerie des Glaces

The Hall of Mirrors in Versailles is a grand gallery built by Jules Hardouin-Mansart in 1678, featuring a length of 73 meters. The impressive vaulted ceiling of the hall was painted by Charles Le Brun between 1681 and 1684. This vast gallery serves as the central corridor of the Palace of Versailles, connecting the Salon de la Guerre and the Salon de la Paix with the King and Queen's State Apartments.
