Hall of Mirrors, Ceremonial corridor in Palace of Versailles, France

The Hall of Mirrors extends over 73 meters with 357 mirrors arranged across 17 arches opposite large windows facing the palace gardens.

Jules Hardouin-Mansart designed this corridor between 1678 and 1684 to replace an open terrace connecting the King's and Queen's apartments.

The ceiling paintings by Charles Le Brun illustrate military victories and diplomatic reforms from the first 18 years of Louis XIV's reign.

Visitors can access the Hall of Mirrors from Tuesday to Sunday between 9:00 AM and 5:30 PM through guided or self-guided tours.

The Treaty of Versailles, marking the end of World War I, was signed in this hall on June 28, 1919.
