About us
Built by Louis XV and Louis XVI, refurbished under Napoleon I then Napoleon III, the château de Compiègne was a center of court life and the exercise of power. The originality and beauty of the largest French neo-classical castle, the quality of its interior decorations and its furniture, constitute a unique whole, a historic place which, alongside Versailles and Fontainebleau, is one of the three most important French royal and imperial residences.
Classified as historical monuments, the Château de Compiègne offers visitors the discovery of the Royal and Imperial Apartments, as well as several museums: the Second Empire Museum, the Empress Museum, the National Car Museum and a park labeled "Remarkable Garden".
