Different entrances to the Palace of Versailles
The Palace of Versailles uses a system of lettered entrances to manage visitor flow through the complex:
Grille d’Honneur (Main entrance)
The Grille d’Honneur (Honor Gate) is located at Place d'Armes, 78000 Versailles. This golden gate serves as the primary physical entrance to the Palace of Versailles and the Cour d'Honneur. Visitors cross this threshold to reach the Pavillon Dufour and the Pavillon Gabriel for interior tours.
The gate acts as the central security perimeter where staff monitor the flow of people entering the courtyard. This location is the most recognized access point for travelers arriving from the nearby train stations. Once through the gate, the layout directs visitors toward the specific pavilions based on their reservation details.
