On Tuesday 13 January, the Palace of Versailles will be closed from 1 p.m., with last admission at 11:10 a.m. The car park will be closed all day. However, the Domaine de Marly, the Gardens and the Park of Versailles will remain open.
There are certain chapters in the palace’s history which receive less attention than others, despite being remarkably well-documented. The Second World War is one of the most intriguing examples.
