La Flotille Princière du Château de Chantilly" exhibition

The archives kept at the Musée Condé enable us to follow the creation of the Grand Canal, the secondary canals and the navigable areas designed by André Le Nôtre. Without them, no refined flotilla of pleasure and entertainment would have been built in Chantilly. From the 1670s onwards, galleots, rowboats, frigates, gondolas and colourful pirogues colonised the waters of Chantilly for the amusement of the Condés and their guests. The Cabinet des Livres at the Musée Condé presents a copious collection of archives, plans, books and engravings that give an idea of this nautical life.
