 Re: Behind The Secret Door...
Comte thank you so much for plotting the staircases on the plan. It makes it so much easier and fun to be able to look at the photos and see on the plan where the staircases are located.

 Re: Behind The Secret Door...
I found this interesting French video on You tube and thought it might be helpful to those of you looking for that secret door. Maybe one of you will be kind enough to let us all know what is being said in the video. Enjoy! Here is the link: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eRUsXzkwglcThe owner of this video also has other very interesting videos of Versailles posted as well.
