      What about Drachenburg, or Peles Castle or Doges Palace? And also, they hire italians, germans and so on, to do this buildings, no way it is purely french architecture.

    So did his very young wife live with him? What was wrong with her apartments - were they unfinished? You ended their story with questions! He lived there but she did not? What’s the rest of their story? Don’t misunderstand me I love your program especially with the 3D blue prints so we can see the layout of rooms and buildings. Helps tell each story in detail I love it!

    Hello Slice, quite impressive documentary! Who sponsored it? Sorry for the brusque questions, but why are there no credits at all ? I believe people made that and deserve some kind of recognition?
    I also wish to ask you about a strangeness: at 27:49 and 47:36, you show an aerial view of Place Victor Hugo. which is located more than 2km west of the Élysée Palace, and, to my knowledge has no direct link with the subject. Is there a reason for that, other than a simple error?

    J’ai visité il y a peu de temps le Palais de l’Elysée, en mars 2024. Les meubles anciens ont été retirés, remplacés par des meubles et sièges contemporains, les tapis et tapisseries aussi. L’ensemble est très coloré mais les salons ressemblent maintenant à des salles d’attente. Seul le bureau du général De Gaulle reste, contre un mur dans un grand salon. Réellement, la grande salle de réception est plus lumineuse qu’auparavant avec une moquette grise

      The access to the main courtyard has huge glass doors, wanted by Michelle Auriol, wife of President Auriol ~1947 (in the past, there was a glass roof ~ verrière instead).
      Without the glass doors , it would be a permanent wind inside I think

Pour la gouvernance française, il eût fallu les Invalides avec sa grande Cour d'Honneur et son esplanade ou reconstruire le Palais de Tuileries qui s'ouvre sur les jardins de l'Orangerie et la Concorde.
