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.
Artificial Intelligence
Talk to the sculptures of the Gardens of Versailles
The Palace of Versailles offers, thanks to a partnership with Ask Mona and OpenAI, a unique experience for its visitors: twenty iconic fountains and statues from the Gardens become narrators of their own stories. For the first time at Versailles, these masterpieces of heritage speak and engage in conversations with the public.
