"..The identity Château de Versailles is closely linked to the city surrounding it; Versailles. Not surprisingly, the city is what gave the Château de Versailles its name in the first place. When the château was built, Versailles was a mere country village.

Today, it is a small city and one of France's most popular tourist destinations. The palace has housed the royal court several times, and is therefore not only famous as a building, but also as a symbol of the system of absolute monarchy."
