Château de Chantilly

The Château de Chantilly is one of the jewels of France?s heritage. It is also the work of a man with an exceptional destiny: Henri d?Orléans, Duc d?Aumale, son of the last French king, Louis-Philippe. Considered the greatest collector of his time, this prince made Chantilly the showcase for his countless masterpieces and precious manuscripts. The château has stood the test of time, as the Duc d?Aumale bequeathed it to the Institut de France in 1886 - the perfect opportunity to take a trip back in time to the heart of a princely residence. In tribute to his illustrious predecessors, the Princes de Condé, the Duc d'Aumale named the complex the Musée Condé.
