Step by Step

The Palace of Vaux-le-Vicomte is one of the masterpieces of the French Baroque and the origin of the idea that shaped Versailles. This ticket allows you to freely explore its dazzling architecture, from the Grand Salon to the king's bedrooms, discovering how magnificence was conceived in the 17th century. The audio guide accompanies you step by step to give you an insight into the background of each space and the ambition that led to its creation.

Descending into the underground kitchens, you'll see where royal banquets were planned; in the king's hall and the dome you'll soak up design and symbolism. The tour doesn't stop at the main building: the Carriage Museum displays period vehicles that showcase aristocratic transport, and the French gardens are a lesson in geometry, power and aesthetics, with carefully calculated flowerbeds, fountains and perspectives.

The experience is heightened if you sharpen your eyes from the belvederes and take time to stroll along the paths: every angle reveals a combination of art, power and meticulous care.
