Académie du spectacle équestre
In front of the Château de Versailles, go and discover the Royal Stables, which date back to the 17th century. You will find there the Small stable used for driving horses, and the Large stable which was used among other things as a place for horse races so dear to the king! As the Academy of Equestrian Entertainment, it trains the future great riders while raising their awareness of arts such as fencing or dance and thus offering you wonderful shows.
