The Château de Chantilly and Conde Museum stand in the center of a vast estate covering 7,800 hectares; the château and estate have been built up by the owners of Chantilly since the Middle Ages.

The Musée Condé is home to a collection that is rivaled in terms of size only by that of the Louvre; it contains over 1,000 paintings, 2,500 drawings, and 2,500 engravings. The library contains 30,000 books, including 12,000 old prints and upward of 1500 manuscripts. Works in the museum include those of Raphael and many other old masters.

The Château de Chantilly is surrounded by some fantastic gardens - perfectly preserved remnants of extraordinary decadence and beauty. There are canals and waterfalls, fountains and water jets, lush flower borders, English and Chinese style gardens, dozens of statues and sculptures. It is a lovely place to linger.
