Marly lies 7 km north-west of Versailles, halfway between Versailles and the palace of Saint Germain en Laye, and was Louis XIV’s second great work. The king used it as a residence for leisure and kept access to it restricted to only a few privileged courtiers. Here, Jules Hardouin-Mansart demonstrated his dual talent as an architect and gardener by creating one of the most original works of the 17th century. The palace of Marly was gradually demolished in the early 19th century. The park and other features, such as the drinking pool with its two ponds, still remain today.
