Versailles

“Drama-documentary series recreating the story of the rise and fall of one of Europe's most splendid palaces.”

From 1643 to 1792 it was the stage on which the most glorious period of the French Monarchy played out, until the darkest days, at the fall of the Bourbon dynasty. This collection offers a sensitive and endearing portrait of the monarchs and recreates their life, loves and political willpower.
