Versailles: Four Centuries in the World's Most Famous Castle

By Johan Op de Beeck

Dive deep into the turbulent history of the most famous castle in the world with master storyteller Johan Op de Beeck.

The hunting pavilion of Louis XIII was expanded by Louis XIV into one of the largest, most beautiful, and most expensive palaces in the world. Versailles became a center of power, full of intrigue, major political events, scandals, and dangerous liaisons. During the French Revolution, it was almost demolished, and later completely transformed into a museum. Even today, it remains a forum of world history. The First World War ended there in 1919. Hitler hated Versailles. The Allies bombed it. Master storyteller Johan Op de Beeck majestically recounts four centuries of Versailles.
