Palace of the King of Rome, an example of neoclassical architecture, it hosts the Museum of Art and History of Rambouillet.

This building is an example of neoclassical architecture. It was built between 1783 and 1787 by Thévenin, on the orders of Louis XVI, to serve as a government hotel for the Count of Angiviller, governor of Rambouillet. Napoleon I bought it in 1812 for his son, the King of Rome, and had it renovated. But the young heir never had the opportunity to stay there. Today, the Palace hosts the city's art and history museum, thematic and temporary exhibitions as well as festive events in its garden during the summer.

An unmissable place of french historical and cultural heritage. This place is hard to find, well hidden. Un lieu incontournable du patrimoine historique et culturel français. Cet endroit est dur à trouver, bien caché.

Visite palais du verger: très bien pour la restauration du bâtiment, contenu clair et précis,vidéo pédagogique pour se remettre dans le contexte du 18ème siècle,prix acceptable du billet.Beaucoup moins sympathique: se faire "rabrouer" à la plupart des questions posées,ou des remarques(dont certaines étaient peut-être"dérangeantes?"). (Au passage, Angivillier n' jamais été duc: il portait le titre de comte.)Félicitations aux restaurateurs qui ont fait un travail exceptionnel.
