ADOPT A BENCH IN THE QUEEN’S GROVE
THE QUEEN’S GROVE: A GRAND RESTORATION
Created in 1776 especially for Queen Marie Antoinette, the Queen’s Grove is a unique creation in the gardens of Versailles. Its richness lies in its compositions of diverse plant life newly introduced to Europe, centered around the Virginia tulip poplar.
Thanks to a host of generous patrons, a large-scale restoration effort has been undertaken at the Queen’s Grove between 2019 to 2021, offering Versailles visitors a piece of exceptional horticultural heritage.
