The Basics

The Royal Chapel, completed in 1710, is one of the best-preserved areas of the palace from the reign of Louis XIV. A general admission ticket to the palace allows visitors to see inside the chapel from its entrance, but guests are not allowed inside unless they’re part of a guided VIP tour. These not only get you into the chapel, but the otherwise off-limits Royal Quarters as well. Concerts and other special events are hosted in the Royal Chapel from time to time, offering further opportunity to get inside and appreciate the ornate detail.

Architecture of the Royal Chapel

The Royal Chapel stands out from the rest of the palace in its height and the fact that it disrupts the otherwise symmetrical design. The Gothic structure, designed by Jules Hardouin-Mansart, features large glass windows, buttresses, and a vaulted ceiling depicting scenes of the Holy Trinity.
