Il ÉTAIT UNE FOIS…
Trois rois appelés “Louis” et trois reines appelées “Marie”.

Louis XIV, marié à Marie Thérèse d’Espagne, s’y est installé officiellement en 1682, après des décennies de travaux transformant le pavillon de chasse de son père Louis XIII en palais symbole de la grandeur de la France et du roi Soleil. Son arrière-petit-fils, Louis XV, marié à Marie Leszczynska de Pologne, a pu profiter pleinement du confort et de l’espace offert par le château de son aïeul. Le petit-fils de ce dernier, Louis XVI, marié à la célèbre Marie Antoinette d’Autriche, eu, quant à son tour, un destin tragique, payant le prix pour autant de splendeur et d’ostentation. Découvrons ensemble tous les secrets que referme la demeure des rois de France.

A pleasant and easy way to discover Paris in 1 day…

This tour begins in the heart of the city: in the Ile de la Cité, the island where the city of Paris was born, the geographical center of the capital and where the Cathedral of Notre Dame is located. After a brief history, we enter into this Gothic style work of art and then continue walking around the island. A short detour through the city hall (l’hôtel de Ville) will be well worth it: we will be face to face with another Renaissance-style architectural gem.

From Napoléon III to the Phantom of The Opéra of Balzac…

Le voilà ! The magnificent Opera House of Paris dates back to the Second Empire, to the times of Napoleon I’s nephew and his court, Napoléon III. It’s part of the 19th century city’s transformation undertaken by the Baron Haussmann: 60% of the buildings and neighborhoods of Paris were demolished and rebuilt in “modern and homogenous” architectural style.
