The name of this castle-town, which the Sun King turned into a kingdom to guard his court, has echoed for centuries across the globe. Where Louis XIII hunted, Louis XIV reigned, Louis XVI and Marie-Antoinette lost their way, and Napoleon tried to make it his own. A heritage as rich as the diversity of its walks. The château, for the pleasure of wandering through its succession of rooms, being moved by Trianon and discovering its formal gardens or the King's kitchen garden. Bartabas' equestrian academy, the Osmothèque, water games, concerts, events... An exceptional architectural, forestry and botanical environment.
