The past week-end, my wife had organized our participation to the event called: "Napoléon à Versailles".
The requirement to participate was that everyone had to be dressed in the style of the 19th century, as the people during his reign as emperor.
During the event, many actors performed according to how things were done at that time. We could see military parades and maneuvers, a medal ceremony, military base camp.
On the camp-side, we could also visit some ancient trade sites, vintage dance presentations and many other related activity for that period.
In the evening, we could visit the private chambers of Napoléon (usually not opened to the public), some vintage dance scene again, participate to the goose game, which was heavily played at the court. There were also musical presentations of what was sung and listened at the time.
I have uploaded a selection of pictures and videos on our external cloud.
