And it's none other than the legendary Château de Versailles, in the Yvelines region of France, which will host the equestrian events of these Olympic Games. More specifically, the equestrian events will take place in the gardens of the Château de Versailles, promising to provide the general public with a marvellous spectacle, both sporting and visual.

"We decided to set up only temporary infrastructures, so that the four billion viewers who will be watching the Games can also benefit from our heritage and culture," Anne Murac, head of the Île-de-France Olympic and Paralympic venues, told France Télévisions.

Spectators will experience a veritable leap into the past. Under Louis XIV, the largest royal stable in Europe was located at Versailles, housing no fewer than 2,000 horses!
