In this year 2022, the summer series of Com d'Archi accompanies the inventory of French architectural treasures. From 4 July to 28 August, architectural walks through houses and castles, both well-known and lesser-known, will follow one another. The first four issues are written by Esther Greslin. The next four numbers are written by Anne-Charlotte Depondt (the voice of the French version). Esther lends her voice to the English version.
In this eighth and final issue of the Summer 2022 series, we talk about the Château de Marly commissioned by King Louis XIV, a royal architecture that has now disappeared. The only remains are the park, the watering hole and the famous horses commissioned by Louis XV. Why did the great monarch want a new château at the gates of Versailles? Why did this work disappear? What did it look like? Through this Com d'Archi, you will dive into the heart of this "fantastic" project imagined by Jules Hardouin Mansart at the request of the Sun King.
