On the first floor are the reception rooms and the queen’s apartment.

The Grand Trianon

The Grand 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.
