Once upon a time… Christmas time at Vaux-Le-Vicomte

Once upon a time… Christmas time at Vaux-Le-Vicomte

Each year, the beautiful castle is transformed into an enchanted forest.  They have added 124 decorated Christmas trees in the LeNotre gardens, crackling fires inside the château, 12 000 Christmas ornaments and 4000meters of Christmas lights. The installations are inspired by children’s fairy tales.  The Grand Salon is kitted out like the forest from Hansel and Gretel.  A visit that will please both adults and children. We highly recommend it!
