[@skontheroad2666]

I had dinner an event 2 years ago, next to the Count of the Palace where the series "Versailles" was filmed. He had grown up there, and we went through a few of the rooms that are supposed to be the Palace in the show (but I recognized it as familiar right away). At dinner I kept saying the same thing! He just recalls growing up and running through the rooms... and now he just works hard trying to sell the place for functions (quite a few famous ppl have married there). At the end of the day, we all need to work!

I don't think she was down playing sex took place with the mistresses , I think she was only trying to point out that there were very deep intimate and intellectual cultural ties between the King and his mistresses that sex was not all that was important. People must remember royals did not marry for love...majority of people did not marry for love. So in a mistress or a love....that is where you would be yourself and find the friend and the similar interest. Not advocating the practice only trying to clarify what she may have meant

[@jamescarlton6016]

Madame de Pompadour and Louis XVs relationship was sexual to begin with. But later on I became more of a close friendship. It is said that you can't really trust anyone at court, so that is why Louis XV clung to Pompadour, because she was someone he could trust. The Petit Trianon in the grounds of Versailles was Created for Madame de Pompadour, but she died too early and never saw it completed. Madame du Barry was said to be stupid and uneducated, but she was possibly the most beautiful mistress Louis XV had.

[@guilhermedeb.1347]

The sexual relationship between Pompadour and Louis lasted, according to historians, almost 5 years. But the Marquise herself would point out how frigid she was, so they stayed very close friends for over 20 years, and she managed to keep the title of maîtresse-en-titre. On Madame du Barry, she was actually quite clever. Of course her level of culture wasn’t exactly a match for the nobles who were born surronded by teachers and books, but she did have some wit. Coming from street prostitution, she was educated by a mistress of her mother’s lover. And although she didn’t have infinite culture, she did have a good taste - very different from Marie Antoniette’s, but still good - and was very kind and charitable.

When heirs to the throne married, the alliances were political and rarely took into consideration the feelings of the parties involved. "Love" in royal marriages is a recent invention (and, given the messes of the BRF, RARELY works out). Mistresses, on the other hand, were friends, confidants, comforters and bedmates. Maitresse-en-titre was an officially recognized position.

[@guilhermedeb.1347]

There are tours to these rooms. They don’t happen very often and are a little bit more expensive than the regular ticket, but it is definitely worth it! The groups have usually no more then 10 people. These appartements are EXTREMELY small if you consider the amount of tourists and visitors Versailles receives everyday, so it’s comprehensible that they’re not open to the big public.

[@SweetJeopardy]

There are tons of rooms which aren't furnished either. All of the furniture was auctioned off during the French revolution and since then the government has tried to get it back or to recreate it as it would have been. For this there is a ton historical research to make it as close as possible, there's a documentary here on KZbin about restorers that use the same manufacturing techniques as those from the 18th century. The process is very time consuming.

Read the memoirs of the Duc de Saint Simon, who was elevated to his dukedom during during the latter part of Louis XIV's reign and was among the prominent courtiers at Versailles for many years. I am in the process of reading the memoirs right now during this lockdown, as transcribed in 3 books by Lucy Norton. You can actually feel exactly what it was like from day to day. Saint Simon is an excellent writer and it's an incredibly detailed memory of life at Versailles with all of it's triumphs, tragedies, love, death and personal human conflict. Absolutely fascinating, if you want to know what it was truly like from the inside.

I will add it to my reading list.

[@RoberttAvro]

@@Petitedelight87K Yeah, I loved his accurate portrayal of life at Versailles. You really get the feel of what it was like to live there, and he was so detailed at analyzing people's personalities and motivations. A valuable skill for someone in his position. Another one I really enjoyed Petite was the book of collected "Letters From Lisalotte." Princess Charlotte was married to Louis XIV's bisexual brother and wrote literally thousands of letters about life at Versailles. She had a lot of power, but she was not very popular and felt an outsider at court. She poured out her feelings in letter after letter, many to her aunt, who was the mother of George I of England. When I read them I felt like I got to know her personally, almost like she was writing them recently, but of course it was many hundreds of years ago. I'll tell you, both those books I felt immersed in and was sorry to see them end.

For all the people asking this: - Why are the beds so small ? - Did the Historian said that they didn't have sex ? -» In those times people used to sleep half seated because the laid position was considered a call for death or "the position of death" , it was also better for digestion even if that was not the cause for the position. -» YES, they had sex, a lot of it. But in those times, when the King had a lot of false friends around him he normally used mistresses to be ALSO a friend with witch he could share a little of himself like art preferences, music, small talk, etc.

But only if the monarchy treated all of their citizens fairly, not just the aristocracy..it’s so important to remember that the French people were literally starving back then for so long 😢 and the monarchy just didn’t seem concerned about their terrible situation. They were raised to believe they were more important and never thought about the “lower classes”. That’s not fair. I’ve lived good and I’ve lost it all too. I know what it’s like to be in need and lucky in our time we can get help, but back then nobody cared.

Is she really implying that Louis didn't have sex with his mistresses?That he preferred to discuss art, literature, etc. with them? Or am I missing something here?

[@MissWitchiepoo]

It was only Pompadour he didn't have sex with. She didn't really like sex so she instead supplied the king with lots of women. There was a place a house I don't recall the name that had some of the women who were mistresses. They were found for him. The children he had with them or at least with some of them got the last name Aimé. I think Madame Du Barry really loved him and she was a kind person. After his death she would help the people in the village where she lived. She got a new lover and he was killed very brutally and his head thrown into her garden or house. The King got plenty of sex believe me:)

[@peroz1000]

MissWitchiepoo He sure did! Didn't he die of Syphilis or some other STD?

[@MissWitchiepoo]

No he didn't. He died from I think you call it the smallpox in English. So when he died he looked awful full of puss all over and he smelled awful too and he was all blackened very sad when you think of it he was a handsome man. Henry the 8th some say died of Syphilis but you know how it is a lot of people a lot of opinions:) I don't think we should envy a lot of these Kings as they had their problems. I remember reading Louis the 14th had this problem in his mouth (I don't know the names in English for deceases I'm afraid) and it had puss in it I think it was like a hole and he as I remembered it stank out of his mouth. It must have been very painful. If you like to read you should read about the death of Axel Von Fersen the so called by some lover of Marie Antoinette. He died in a horrific way. There is a great documentary about him but it is Swedish and this guy tells the story so you feel that you are there watching:) I haven't read any books about Royalty in years as I started genealogy and found my own ancestors were much more interesting because they were MY family and showed the history of the kind of people they didn't write much about through history while others were well known and made me want to know more:)

Also the beds with the rolls on the end are day beds Im fairly sure which are for lounging and .... other ... fun activities often the actual bed that was used at night was in a separate room and was very personal, only the resident, lawful parther and servants would enter there.

Lucy Claudia You're right! Not everyone did but this belief was also found in France, yes. Random fact (for people who could be interested) you rarely see anything for bathing, as it was not a common practice: people thought the water would transmit diseases through the pores of the skin, and were not comfortable being naked. Some also thought that because bathing would open your pores, the devil and evil could also get to you through the skin. Movies about this era always depict beautiful and well dressed people when most of them actually had really poor hygiene and wore makeup, powder, wigs and scented pouches to hide it!

Max R that is one thing I love about the movie the Libertine with Johnny depp because they depicted people as they were not as we wish they were.

[@mhyer9838]

USCHI LOU Haven't seen it, which is weird because I like Johnny Depp, but I'll make sure to watch it. And I agree, people often have this false vision of medieval times likes it's something wonderful with all the dresses and princesses when actually... Its completely different. It's even said that one of the kings smelled horrible haha!

It is my dream to own the Palace of Versailles.

Mistresses were more like Italian "Courtisasns",women who were pretty smart and advices the king's in politics mainly.Thus, they were not prostitutes.

Today the real fucking whore called republic... terrible times for france

Madame DuBarry was NOT a prostitute ! The French police kept excellent track of women of the streets and there was no evidence despite her Versailles enemies.She was a courtesan like Pompadour. Pompadour involved herself in politics & imprisoned her detractors. She promoted the Disastrous “7 years war“ &. Few mourned her death. DuBarry saved lives & got condemned prisoners released. Kind to enemies & although women were jealous of her position & beauty she gradually made friends because she was so kind. She had advanced taste in decoration & architecture & helped advance the Lois XI style. Read many bios on her. So there!
