CHANTILLY: Europe's grandest princely stables! The Chantilly Estate owes its current appearance to Henri d'Orléans, Duke of Aumale, son of Louis-Philippe, the last king of France.
The small Renaissance castle dates from the mid-16thth century, and the large castle was rebuilt from 1875 onwards by architect Honoré Daumet to house the duke's collections.
Chantilly Castle is located in the valley of the Nonette, a tributary of the Oise, 20 min from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport and 40 km from central Paris.
Enjoy a visit to the estate to walk on foot, ride the little train or take a car, but also attend one of the majestic equestrian shows! The Grand Stables and the horse museum are must-see attractions.

Visiting tips • Domaine de Chantilly 2026
You will need at least a 1/2 day to visit the estate. A full day is still ideal to enjoy all the buildings and gardens.
Here are some recommended minimum visiting times, for reference:
- Park and gardens: 2:00
- Château: 1:30
- Grandes Écuries: 45 min
1/2-day visit
In one morning or afternoon, you will have time to see the must-sees, namely: the Château de Chantilly and its apartments & collections. You can also walk through part of the park and the Grandes Écuries if you hurry!
1-day visit
A full day is ideal for visiting the estate. For example, you could visit the Château and the private apartments in the morning, have lunch at the château restaurant (take the time to taste real Chantilly cream!). Then in the afternoon, you could attend the equestrian show of about 30 minutes, offered almost every day under the dome of the Grandes Écuries and included in the 1-day ticket (today's time in the château schedule). If you are there on a Show day and have a ticket to attend, that will be the time too. Then discover the Musée vivant du Cheval and end your day in the Park and its magnificent gardens.
The weekend in Chantilly
A weekend in Chantilly is perfect to make the most of the region. Take the time to visit the Château and its park, and attend the shows and performances. You can also add a horse ride in town and in the park, or explore the park by bike, rosalie, electric car, or small train (from 28 March to 11 November in 2026)…

Maps of the Chantilly Estate
Chantilly in a few words and images
The Chantilly Castle is located in the Hauts-de-France region, more precisely in the Oise department. Originally built in the Middle Ages on the site of a medieval fortress, it was subsequently modified and expanded over time.
The castle that can be seen today is therefore a 19th-century creation by the architect Honoré Daumet for Henri d’Orléans, Duke of Aumale, son of King Louis-Philippe Ier. He installed his collections of books, drawings and old paintings there.
All of this was bequeathed to the Institut de France, forming the Musée Condé, which houses masterpieces by Raphael, Ingres, Poussin, Fra Angelico and Watteau.
The Grand Stables (built: 1719-1735) are the work of architect Jean Aubert and now house the Living Horse Museum.
The Gardens bring together three eras: the French garden designed by André Le Nôtre in the 17th century, the Anglo-Chinese garden and its Hamlet created from 1773 onwards, and the English garden designed from 1817 onwards.
The Chantilly estate includes:
- 115 hectares of parkland
- A famous racing course, next to the Grand Stables
- The largest princely stables in Europe
- 2st collection of old paintings in France after the Louvre
