Presentation
Enjoy the extraordinary beauty of the Château de Versailles gardens, exceptionally open to the public, as you stroll with your family or friends through the groves and discover the fountains playing to the sound of the music that once brought them to life.
The 55 fountains and pools and their 600 water features, set in motion with the help of a lyre key by the Château de Versailles fountain specialists, will delight you. The greatest baroque composers, from Lully to Handel, will accompany you in your royal stroll in music.
