Morning sailing to Bougival. In the afternoon, included excursion: the Château de Malmaison.

Decorated in classical style by the famous architects Percier and Fontaine, the château served as the seat of the French government from 1800 to 1802, where Napoleon frequently held meetings with his ministers. Major political decisions were made within these walls… After passing through the tent-shaped vestibule, you'll be immersed in the everyday life of its most renowned residents—from Joséphine’s moving bedroom where she died in 1814, to the music room where her harp still stands, and the Marengo Room with Napoleon’s weapons.

This prince, considered the greatest collector of his time, made Chantilly the setting for his countless masterpieces and precious manuscripts. The château has remained as it was when the Duke of Aumale bequeathed it to the Institut de France in 1886—an ideal opportunity to take a journey through time in the heart of a princely residence. You will visit, among other things, the painting galleries, where the presentation has remained unchanged since the 19th century; the grand apartments, which offer a great variety of art objects, furniture and master paintings; and the Book Cabinet, one of France's richest libraries.
