LES ANTIQUAIRES DE LA GEÔLE – ARCANES ANTIQUITÉS
Go there and contact
The heart of the art market in Versailles surprises us at the north-west corner of the market square, between Ducis and Pourvoirie streets, with over antique dealers. The neighborhood of the dealers seems to surround us with wood and stone in massaging its shops around the former hotel of the bailiwick, formerly seat of the court of the judicial district; The passage of the breathe that surrounds him makes the passers-up of passers-by, reminiscent of the prison cells present in his basement, and the old walk of the prisoners. Under the Revolution, you could have seen Madame Barry, a former favorite of Louis XV, but also witness the massacres, on 9 and 10 September 1792, of 70 prisoners, including the Duke of Brissac. This neighborhood, also known as the breathe area, is nothing dismal; on the contrary, a crazy charm is alive. The dealers gathered around this historic site, in picturesque courtyards and flowery alleys in the spring. they are open on the weekend. In the square, the restaurant «Patio des Antiquaires» will satisfy you. A true haven of peace under the gaze of the past.
