The land surrounding the Palace of Versailles, with an area of ​​more than 12,000 hectares, was a very favorable territory for hunting, so royalty began to frequent it as a recreational area. Until, in the 17th century, King Louis XIV became so fond of the place that he decided to transform an old hunting lodge into the sumptuous royal palace that is today Versailles.
