Unmissable for water and music lovers alike. A melodious stroll through the legendary groves and water gardens of the Chateau of Versailles: France's finest landscaped park, the masterpiece of Louis XIV and Le Nôtre.
The Grand Musical Fountain Display, a sparkling and melodious promenade among the fountains and Groves of the Gardens of Versailles, has this year been set to music by the « Talents Lyriques », conducted by Christophe Rousset.
An exploration of an exceptional natural, artistic and musical heritage, the Fountain Display is based on an itinerary designed from the outset, in 1666, as a festive occasion, by Louis XIV himself.
The Fountains have become thus an essential experience for all who love gardens, the magical potential of water and music.
Free to decide their own route, visitors wander to and fro through the Gardens of Versailles, between stunning open prospects and the intimacy of the bosquets (groves) providing green settings for unique works of art.
