Four names have been associated with the Château de Chantilly over the centuries: d’Orgemont, Montmorency, Condé and Aumale. This cast of illustrious families and individuals fashioned the site and its architecture, allowing it to survive the ravages of time and war.
The Château currently houses the Condé Museum, with 1000 paintings and 5000 drawings and engravings, as well as 3000 works in the Library. The names read like an anthology of European masters from the 15th to the 19th century: Raphaël, Delacroix, Ingres, Watteau, Poussin…
Objets d’art are not neglected either, with Chantilly and Sèvres porcelain and royal furniture. The wishes of the greatest collector of his age have been respected: these treasures are only revealed to those who come to Chantilly to see them. A unique, unforgettable experience.
