The construction of the Palace of Versailles began in 1660 under King Louis XIV and was a massive project that was not fully completed until 1774. Versailles was originally a hunting lodge but was expanded into a grand palace under Louis XIV. The architects Louis Le Vau, Andre Le Notre, and Charles Lebrun oversaw the baroque style construction using cut stone. There was no expense spared in decorating Versailles with lavish carvings, marble, paintings and over 2,000 windows and fireplaces. The expansive gardens cover nearly 1,000 acres and are as impressive as the palace itself.
In Summer is a delight to visit the gardens at Versailles, There is music that goes along with water of the fountains in a great spectacle called
The Dancing Waters
or
Les Eaux Danzantes

Chateau de Versailles was originally a hunting lodge for King Louis XIII that was expanded into a grand palace by his successor Louis XIV. The construction began in 1660 and lasted until 1688, with ongoing changes until 1774, transforming it into the largest palace in Europe with over 2,000 rooms, windows, and fireplaces. The palace was built in the lavish Baroque style with no expense spared for luxurious details and decorations.

These historic sites showcase India's rich architectural heritage and remain as cultural symbols of its past dynasties.
For most visitors, who went to the Palace of Versailles, the most common to feeling after the visit was that they were overwhelmed by the extravagance and the opulence of the palace. Apart from the Hall of Mirrors, most people could remember very little of individual rooms. I hope this slideshow would allow you to revisit the palace once again and make a little sense of what you saw.
The Palace of Versailles is the most well known example of European Palace. The palace is also a statement of the wealth and power of an absolute monarch. Since then the design of the palace had been copied all over the world.
It was constructed during the reign of Louis XIV, when the power of the absolute French monarch was at its zenith. Louis XIV saw the palace as a setting to propagate his own personality cult. It was here at Versailles, Louis XIV daily theatrical rituals were on show to nobility – routines like the king rises, the king retirement at night, even the queen giving birth to the royal babies are opened to the public eyes.
Today, the French is keen to shake off this symbol of absolute monarchy but to portrait the palace as achievements of French culture, of French taste and as a place where great international diplomacy is conducted. It was here the Treaty of Versailles was sign, putting an end to the First World War.
The document is about a trumpet performance of the piece "Trumpet Voluntary in D Major" by Doc Severinsen on Saturday, November 5th, 2011 at 3:13 PM. It provides the name of the performer, the name and key of the piece performed, and the date and time of the performance.
Versailles began as a small village and royal hunting ground, but King Louis XIV decided to build a palace there, establishing it as the capital of France and home to over 50,000 people. The palace grew extensively under different rulers but nearly fell into disuse until being named a national monument in the 19th century, and it remains a major tourist attraction for its ornate buildings and gardens designed by Le Notre spread across a large estate.
Versailles was originally built in 1661 as a hunting lodge for King Louis XIV but became the seat of French royal power. Located just outside Paris, its gardens and fountains were designed by landscape architect Andre Le Notre and expanded during the reign of Marie Antoinette in the late 18th century. After the French Revolution, Versailles went through a period of damage and restoration before opening as a museum that it remains today.
The document summarizes the daily routines and activities of King Louis XIV at Versailles. It describes how he would wake up each morning to a ceremonial rising called the "levee," where he would be dressed and have breakfast. He would then hold council meetings to govern the kingdom. Louis immersed himself completely in his role as king, identifying himself as "the State." Each evening he would have a public supper before retiring for the night. Versailles housed the entire French court and government and helped the king control the nobility through constant supervision.

4. Ludwig al II-lea de Bavaria (1845-1886), numit şi Regele
Nebun, a fost fiul regelui Maximilian al II-lea de Bavaria
cu Maria de Prusia. A primit o educaţie atentă, care a
pus accentul pe latura artistică. În viaţa sa a avut două
mari obsesii: să construiască castele grandioase şi
pasiunea pentru Richard Wagner, ceea ce a făcut ca
Ludwig al II-lea să devină patronul şi prietenul apropiat
al compozitorului, care, astfel, nu a mai trebuit să-şi
facă griji privitoare la traiul de fiecare zi şi nici de
mijloacele necesare pentru a-şi putea prezenta operele.
A iniţiat construirea a patru castele minunate:
Neuschwanstein, a cărui construcţie a durat 17 ani,
Linderhof, singurul care a fost terminat în timpul vieţii
sale, Herrenchiemsee şi Hohenschwangau.
Cel mai spectaculos castel este Neuschwanstein, situat
în oraşul Füssen, 132 km sud-vest de München. Este
construit la altitudinea de aproape o mie de metri, între
munţi, într-un loc încântător.
5.
6. Ludwig al II-lea a vrut ca acest castel să fie construit
de bavarezi, cu materiale din Bavaria. Acest fapt a
avut ca urmare încurajarea dezvoltării meseriilor pe
plan local.
Castelul nu numai că trebuia să semene cu unul de
basm, ci urma să fie dotat cu ultimele cuceriri ale
tehnicii de la acea dată.
Pe lângă frecventele trimiteri la poveşti, legende şi
diverse personaje medievale (Tristan şi Isolda,
Ferdinand Catolicul), castelul înglobează o reţea
electrică completă, primul telefon mobil din istorie
(cu o acoperire de şase metri) şi o bucătărie, în care
au fost aplicate principiile de transmitere a căldurii
elaborate de Leonardo Da Vinci.
7.
8. Castelul a avut de încălzire centrală din 1884. A fost
folosit un sistem de conducte de ventilaţie pentru
aerul cald, care circulă prin camerele de la etajele
superioare.
În acest scop, lângă bucătărie au fost construite nişte
sobe mari, iar pentru a le putea aproviziona cu
cantităţi mari de lemne de foc, a fost construit un
ascensor special.
9.
10. Frumuseţea Castelului Neuschwanstein este
completată de frumosul peisaj al Alpilor, care îl
înconjoară, şi de o cascadă, care poate fi văzută
din camera regelui.
Castelul, fiind atât de concordant cu descrierile din
basme, a fost ales de Disney ca model pentru
filmul său "Frumoasa din pădurea adormită". O
replică a castelului a fost construită în Disneyland.
Delectaţi-vă cu aceste fotografii unice ale unui
castel de basm.
29. Sala Tronului este impresionantă, în ciuda
faptului că a fost lăsată neterminată.
Podeaua este de mozaic şi reprezintă cercul
terestru, simbolizând viaţa animalelor şi
plantelor.
De tavan atârnă un candelabru, care cântăreşte
900 kg. Este executat din alamă placată cu aur şi
este încrustat cu cristal de Boemia.
34. În această sală măreaţă,
care îţi transmite
un sentiment de sacralitate,
poate fi văzut locul
pe care ar fi trebuit
să se afle tronul,
care nu a mai fost realizat,
datorită morţii regelui.
37. Sala de Muzică a fost proiectul predilect al
regelui. Amplasată lângă Sala Tronului, era
principala sală a castelului. Acoperă întreg etajul
al patrulea din partea de est a castelului.
Are două funcţiuni: Sală de muzică şi sală de bal.
Plafonul casetat, din lemn de pin are o acustică
bună.
Cele mai multe dintre picturile din această sală
de bal sunt lucrări ale maeştrilor Spiess şi
Ferdinand Piloty, ambii din München.
42. Dormitorul regelui, ca şi în alte
castele ale lui Ludwig al II-lea,
este bogat decorat. Motivul
central îl reprezintă Legenda lui
Tristan şi Isolda. Cei doi nu
sunt reprezentaţi doar în
picturile murale, ci şi în
sculpturile de pe uşi şi pe
piesele de ceramică.
Patul luxos în stil neogotic, şi
tapiţeria scaunelor, sunt din
mătase albastră şi brodate cu
aplicatii si lei, lebede, coroane
şi crini.
47. Toaleta personală a regelui, cu
robinet în formă de lebădă
Vază pentru flori din majolică,

Lebăda a fost animalul
heraldic al regelui Ludwig al II-
lea de Bavaria.
50. CapelaCapela PalatuluiPalatului
Se deschide spre dormitorul lui
Ludovic al II-lea de Bavaria.
Decorată in stil gotic modern,
este dominată de un altar bogat
sculptat. Altarul este completat
cu un valoros crucifix de fildeş.
Picturile şi vitraliile descriu
scene din viaţa de sfântului
Ludovic, patronul regelui.
59. Bucătăria era foarte modernă pentru timpul său.
Era dotată cu apă caldă şi rece şi cu rotisoare
automate pentru prăjit căprioare. Acest lucru s-a
realizat prin abur fierbinte, care urcă prin horn şi
pune în mişcare o turbină. Mişcarea de rotaţie
este transmisă spre grătar prin intermediul unui
angrenaj.
Este o aplicare în practică a uneia dintre
invenţiile culinare ale lui Leonardo da Vinci.
60. Bucătăria a fost echipată
cu tehnologia cea mai
avansată din epocă.
A fost echipată cu un
şemineu mare şi un dulap,
un rotisor mare şi unul mic.
A fost înzestrată şi cu o plită
cu un dispozitiv pentru a
încălzi mâncarea, un cuptor şi
un rezervor.
Are şi un dulap încastrat în
perete, pentru veselă, şi o
încăpere închisă cu pereţi de
sticlă, pentru bucătarul-şef.
63. Ludwig al II-lea a trăit doar 172 de zile în castelul
de Neuschwanstein.
La 10 iunie 1886 a fost detronat, pentru că familia
şi politicienii din Bavaria l-au considerat incapabil
să guverneze, deoarece suferea de o boală
mintală. Prin urmare, l-au luat din castelul său şi l-
au dus la castelul Berg.
Trei zile mai târziu, pe 13 iunie, regele s-a înecat în
lacul Starnberg , în faţa castelului care fost ultimul
său domiciliu - închisoare. Odată cu cadavrul său,
a fost descoperit şi cel al medicului său personal,
dr. Gudden.
Versiunea oficială cu privire la moartea lui este
sinuciderea, prin care se încheie viaţa sa chinuită,
medicul său pierzându-şi viaţa în încercarea de a-l
opri pe rege din înfăptuirea acestui gest.
