Description
A Day at Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte is an insider's tour of one of France's most magnificent seventeenth-century castles and gardens. Conceived by a team of renowned architects, decorators, and garden designers, the château was built in 1641 as a lavish residence for finance minister Nicolas Fouquet. The book takes readers on a journey through the château's rich history, from its construction to its public opening in 1968. Exclusive photography and archival documents offer unprecedented access to the château, furnishings, and gardens, revealing the extraordinary secrets of court life and centuries of celebrations that have taken place within its walls. Today, visitors can still experience the enchanting candlelit tours held at Vaux-le-Vicomte, a testament to the enduring legacy of this remarkable estate.
