⚠️ The Palace of Versailles will close early at 4.30pm (and 4.15pm for the Trianon Estate) on Saturday, July 11, and Sunday, July 12, 2026.
An architectural ensemble that traces the development of 17th- and 18th-century architecture. Together with the gardens, the national estate is one of the world's most illustrious heritage monuments: the royal apartments, the Hall of Mirrors, the Chapel, the Royal Opera House and the Museum of French History. The park is adorned with statues, fountains, water beds and exceptional buildings: Grand Trianon, Petit Trianon, Temple de l'Amour, Hameau de la Reine Marie-Antoinette. Following the restoration of the Grille Royale and the Petit Trianon, the Opéra Royal opened its doors in 2009 after two years of renovation: it now welcomes the public with an exceptional program. Since October 2010, the king's table has once again been set in the Grand Couvert antechamber, which has been completely restored and reopened to the public. The aim is to recreate the atmosphere of the dinner that King Louis XIV established and held in public with his family every day at 10pm, lasting 45 minutes! The Château de Versailles has a reception and information area for individual visitors, where all offers have been grouped together (sale of "château tickets", one-day and two-day passports, guided tours). This area is located in the first building (south Ministers' wing), on the left-hand ramp after passing through the main entrance.
