| The Hall of Mirrors, the most famous room in the Palace, was built to replace a large terrace designed by the architect Louis Le Vau, which opened onto the garden. The terrace originally stood between the Kingââ¬â¢s Apartments to the north and the Queenââ¬â¢s to the south, but was awkward and above all exposed to bad weather, and it was not long before the decision was made to demolish it. Le Vauââ¬â¢s successor, Jules Hardouin-Mansart, produced a more suitable design that replaced the terrace with a large gallery. Work started in 1678 and ended in 1684. |
