The Domaine de Chantilly includes the Château, the Musée Condé, the park, the Grandes Écuries and the Musée du Cheval.
The castle consists of two distinct spaces: the apartments and the Musée Condé.
The Condé Museum , 2nd collection of ancient paintings after the Louvre, presents a magnificent collection of 800 works.
Poussin, Ingres, Raphael, ... dozens of painters who have made the history of art.
The Condé Museum has kept a typical 19th century clash. In fact, the Duke of Aumale, the last princely owner, left a precise will asking that Chantilly's works remain in place and never be sold or loaned. He hoped to keep his collection intact, and thanks to this vigilance, Chantilly is one of the most beautiful museums in France.
The big apartments allow visitors to admire the 18th century decorations of princes.
Furniture purchased by the Duke d'Aumale, contemporaries of decors, enhance the journey.
Part of the large apartments the Cabinet of Books 19,000 volumes, 1,500 manuscripts and 17,500 prints are preserved. The Duke of Aumale, a true passion, inherits the princes of Bourbon-Condé about 900 manuscripts and acquires 600 of them, among which the famous Very Rich Hours of the Duke of Berry. It thus composes a fabulous collection.
The library and archives of Chantilly Castle in a few figures: 44,000 ancient books including 700 incunables; 1500 manuscripts including 500 illuminated.
The small apartments of the Duke of Aumale bear witness to the way of life of the 19th century since they remained unchanged at the death of their owner. A real journey in the privacy of the Duke.
Discovery of the gardens, tasting of Chantilly cream in the hamlet, playground, labyrinth, pens of kangaroos ... the Park 115 hectares comprises various types of gardens: "French garden" with the large parterre Le Nôtre, English garden, Anglo-Chinese garden, wood ...
The Great Ecuries The Cheval Museum and the performing horses are home to the museum.
The Horse Museum , opened in 2014, is a modern museum presenting 200 works of art around the horse and its history. Ludic and interactive, the Museum is suitable for all ages.
Dressage demonstrations and shows take place according to an annual calendar.
