    The official book to discover all the beauty and richness of the Palace of Versailles.

    The Palace of Versailles gives you a guided tour of the château, its gardens and the Trianon estate, exploring their rich and diverse history. With over 220 photographs from the palace’s official archives, this book offers a comprehensive, unique and exclusive vision of the estate. Many of the photos highlight recently renovated spaces, such as the richly detailed furniture of the King’s Bedchamber, which was restored to its original splendour in April 2026 – as well as a number of spaces with limited public access. These pages also include exclusive drone footage revealing spectacular perspectives and details that are completely invisible to visitors.

    Perfect for architecture, art and history enthusiasts, this is an extensive and detailed guide to the Palace of Versailles’ fascinating and diverse history.
