The database is updated daily and is the result of ongoing research and documentation by the scientific staff of both museums.

Having the biggest palace and the most important king in the world in your city certainly helps to build a beautiful city. Well that’s Versailles for sure. It’s a combination of grand, royally planted avenues and a charming city center. Versailles is thus a very elegant city. The influence of the palace can be felt everywhere in the architecture of the town. Over time, the inhabitants have also become quite elegant. If shopping is your thing, get ready because you will find the best brands that French designers can offer. But, as Versailles is outside of Paris, the shops are not chains. They are locally owned and operated, which helps keep the caring feeling most people prefer.

On the cultural aspect, Versailles is quite an important city for artistic production, in music especially. I’m sure you’ve heard of Daft Punk, and maybe also about bands such as Air or Phoenix. They are the best example of the now famous “French Touch” pop and electro music.
