The Grand Dauphin (1661-1711), Son of a king, father of a king, but never a king

The Palace of Versailles is presenting an exhibition devoted to the Grand Dauphin, Louis de France, the eldest child of Louis XIV. It traces the life of this often overlooked prince. As heir to the throne, he was the focal point of Bourbon dynastic ambitions, without ever reigning, but his education reflects the destiny which was his due.
