Marly, the Sun King´s lost castle

The domain of Marly, located near Versailles (France) has been subject to further archaeological research. In underground areas of what was once the castle, evidence has appeared of its decoration and daily life inside, when it was inhabited in the times of Louis XIV. The monarch took refuge at this place many times during the final years of his life, to get away from the pomp of the court. 300 years after his death, these excavations are a unique opportunity to discover the history of this royal residence.
