  • Summary

  • Take a look back at 400 years of history of the Palace of Versailles in the company of Pierre Duchamp... or rather the ghost of Pierre Duchamp. You know : Pierre, Louis XIII's gamekeeper, who has haunted the place since 1623!

    Century after century, year after year, Pierre saw the simple hunting lodge transformed into a palace, and the palace transformed into a museum! He witnessed major historical events but also intimate scenes, he we even invited to the biggest diplomatic receptions and film shootings ... Pierre opens up and offers you a unique - and historic - visit! - of the palace of Versailles.

    We truly need a 400-year-old ghost to tell so many things, right?
