Jean Cointre
Chantilly Castle, near Paris, present its new show in septembre 2022

It's a grandiose show that is about to be given for the second year at the Château de Chantilly in the Oise region. Chantilly, Le Rocher des Trésors, is a new sound and light show during which the Duke of Aumale, whose bicentenary of birth we are celebrating in 2022, shows us the embellishments of the estate which he inherited in 1830 at the age of eight.
The show takes us through the great celebration organised on 25 October 1722 for the coronation of Louis XV at the Archbishop's Palace in Reims. Later, we travel through the Age of Enlightenment with Montesquieu, Voltaire, Jean-Jacques Rousseau, Denis Diderot and d'Alembert, until the Revolution of 1789 which, ten years later, led to the dismantling of the Château and its outbuildings. It was not until 1875 that the Duc d'Aumale, the heir to the throne who had returned from exile in England, decided to rebuild the Château to house his collections.
With 15,000 spectators last year, Le Rocher des Trésors returns for a second 45-minute episode that combines video projections on the Château, music and fireworks...
