How the Grand Palace took shape

The palace began as a timber-and-palisade royal residence in 1782 before its walls, halls and chapel were rebuilt in masonry.

How the Grand Palace took shape

Why go

How the Grand Palace took shape gives the complex a material history: a timber-and-palisade residence of 1782 became a masonry precinct of walls, halls and chapel. That transformation changes how the buildings read on site. Use it alongside the palace visit, and check current access details before setting out.
