Informazioni
Fatti rapidi: More than 350 mirrors decorate the hall, which were originally illuminated daily by thousands of candles. The 1919 peace negotiations that took place here led to the end of the First World War.
Punti salienti: The ceiling of the hall is covered by Charles Le Brun's frescoes depicting the victories of the Sun King in 17 different scenes. The mirror walls are separated by 17 windows that open onto the royal garden, creating a magical atmosphere through the interplay of light and the garden view.
Consigli da insider
- Comfortable shoes are recommended as the floor can be slippery.
- For photography, it is best to face the windows due to the optimal lighting conditions.
- Avoid weekend afternoons when the crowds are the largest.
- Listen to a guided tour to learn all the interesting details about the frescoes.
