It is a three storey square building. The central door opens on the staircase adorned with a magnificent banister made
of wrought iron. On the first floor are the reception rooms and the queen’s apartment. Around the Petit Trianon are all
the elements that made the palace famous : the French garden with its chapel and Marie-antoinette’s theatre, the English
garden with the belvedere, the temple of love, and the queen’s Hamlet.
Visit the Petit Trianon
The Grand Trianon or Trianon of marble was built during Louis XIV’s reign. The king wanted to have a haven at the end
of the park far from the servitudes of power and from the courtiers. It was possible to get there by boat through the Grand
Canal.
The palace consists of two sets of buildings linked by a peristyle adorned with columns which reveals the garden and its beds
of flowers. This one-storey building is of Italian-style architecture with a flat roof hidden by a balustrade.
Later on, Napoleon lived there and refurnished it, then Louis-Philippe had it restored.
