Known throughout the world, the story of Fouquet, superintendent of Louis XIV, whose jealousy of the king towards him will lead to his loss.
The construction of the Château de Vaux-le-Vicomte, near Melun, south-east of Paris, can be considered as the first stage of the realization of Versailles: Louis XIV resumed in its entirety the team reunited by his superintendent Finance, Nicolas Fouquet, including the architect Louis Le Vau, the painter Charles Le Brun and André Le Nôtre who designed the gardens.

Our driver took us through the gardens with an electric golf cart. This was great since I
have mobility issues.

Most tourists visit Versailles. And it is certainly an amazing place. But the shear size, and crowd size make it hard to fully appreciate the grandeur, extravagance and vision of it all.
Vaux le Vicomte chateau is first a brilliant example of baroque architecture and extravagance but is also a direct antecedent to Versailles. The audio guide for this tour is the best in class. It is the story of the builder and his demise at the hands of Louis XIV. The narrator is the Vicomte himself. The audio guide changes narrative automatically when each room is entered. The production quality is matched with the finest, most comfortable headphones available making the whole experience unmatched.
Whether you see Versailles first or later, you do not want to miss Vaux le Vicomte.
