| Summary |
This film reveals the Sun King's growing ambitions and the splendor of his masterpiece can now be seen as never before. As the iconic castle undergoes extensive restoration work, over 10,000 historical maps of the Chateau have been digitalized, enabling historians to revisit forgotten parts of the iconic Palace. This site mirrors the Sun King's growing ambitions over his 70-year long reign. Shaped over 40 years with ceaseless construction additions, Versailles hides some of Louis the XIV's most fanciful ideas. In reconstructed 3D sets, lavish drama scenes depict the life of the Sun King and some of his closest advisors such as his Prime Minister Colbert or his confident the marquis de Dangeau |
