Chateau de Chantilly

Le Domaine de Chantilly s'etend sur 7 800 hectares au sein de l'une des plus grandes forets des environs de Paris. Il est compose du chateau et de son musee Conde, du parc et de ses jardins, des grandes ecuries et de leur musee du cheval. Constitue depuis le Moyen-Age par les differents proprietaires (Anne de Montmorency, les Bourbon-Conde dont le Grand Conde, cousin de Louis XIV, Henri d'Orleans, duc d'Aumale), cet ensemble represente donc un patrimoine aux facettes multiples et le plus grand exemple en France d'un domaine princier. Le chateau abrite le Musee Conde, lequel est constitue des appartements princiers, d'une collection exceptionnelle de peintures - plus de 800 chefs d'oeuvres d'artistes tels que Botticelli, Raphael, Poussin, Delacroix - qui en fait le premier musee de peintures anciennes (avant 1850) en France apres le musee du Louvre et d'une bibliotheque et d'archives qui conservent plus de 13 000 ouvrages dont le manuscrit le plus precieux au monde : "Les Tres Riches Heures du duc de Berry". Le parc offre quant a lui un panorama grandiose de l'art du jardin occidental : jardin a la francaise dessine par Le Notre au XVIIe siecle, le Hameau qui inspira Marie-Antoinette, le jardin anglo-chinois du XVIIIe siecle, et le jardin anglais du XIXe siecle.

A short rail trip from Pairs, Chantilly offers so much but doesn't suffer from the crowds at the more famous attractions. The Chateau is stunning. The excellent free audio guide offers a fantastic tour allowing a deep insight into life in the Chateau and an appreciation of the exceptional art collection. The Psyche windows are amazing. The gardens are huge and offer something for everyone. Take your time and soak them up. Finally, the stables are breathtaking and highlight the opulence of the time.

Reviewed By T5724HQjohnd - Santa Barbara, United States

This local museum professionally displays archaeology finds in Senlis and the surrounding area. Pre-Roman, Ronan, Byzantine, medieval. Walls, statues, personal items in a chronological order. The art collection is wonderful. Great for a hour or two visit. The small admission fee includes two other museums within 2 blocks.
