The Coach Gallery, Royal carriage museum in Grande Écurie, Versailles, France
The Coach Gallery spans 1000 square meters within two vaulted galleries, displaying a collection of ceremonial vehicles, royal coaches, and transportation artifacts.
King Louis-Philippe established the museum in 1831, gathering historical ceremonial carriages following the liquidation of Charles X's Civil List collection.
The museum exhibits Napoleon I's wedding berlins, Louis XVIII's funeral coach, Charles X's coronation carriage, and Marie-Antoinette's children's carriages.
The Coach Gallery opens exclusively on weekends from 12:30 to 18:30, with access through an 8-minute walk from the Palace of Versailles.
The collection includes Nordic-inspired court sledges that were once raced through Versailles park during winter celebrations and entertainment events.
