Chantilly, A remarkable town

The town of Chantilly has a rich historical heritage. It was established around the castle and gradually expanded during the 18th century. From the 19th century, the town began to be known for equestrian activities.
An exceptional site

Today, the castle is home to the Condé museum, which holds the second-largest collection in France – after the Louvre – of pre-1850 paintings. It comprises more than ten rooms, in which are displayed more than 800 masterpieces of French, Italian, Flemish and English painting. That’s not all the estate has to offer: also worth a visit are the Horse Museum and its 115 hectares of parks and gardens designed by Louis XIV’s gardener, André Le Nôtre.

Chantilly is one of the most beautiful sites in the world devoted to all things equestrian and features:
the Chantilly Racecourse, built in 1834 over 65 hectares on the edge of the forest, opposite the Great Stables, and the venue for various events, such as the annual Prix du Jockey Club and the Prix de Diane (known as the French Oaks);
an intensive training center for racehorses, with more than 3,000 thoroughbreds;
the Polo Club, established on a listed site of 205 hectares and offering various services to businesses, including sponsoring opportunities, competitions, training sessions, dressage and other events during the polo season.
