workshop introduction
Versailles is a town
of about 86,000 inhabitants, capital of the Department of Yvelines, located
about twenty kilometers from the center
of Paris. Despite it’s an important political, cultural and research center, its fame is essentially associated worldwide with
the Royal Palace, commissioned by Luigi XIV, and its park: a site that has been
a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979 and that welcomes 7 million visitors
every year. The Palace looks like a city within the city, isolated in the collective
imagination (and in the management) from its territory, but with which it
plays, in fact, a reciprocal, even if not always evident, interdependence. This
relationship is expressed at different levels: from the geographical point of
view, the Royal Palace is located in the Plain of Versailles (inscribed in the Sites historiques
list since 2000); from the historical point of view, in the past the Park
extended up to Villepreux and structured a vast
territory that included the inhabited centers on the
heights surrounding it; from the technical point of view, the exchange of
resources with the territory went far beyond the current limits of the Royal
Palace (the water network to feed the Park, the building materials, the
agricultural and breeding activities for the Court, etc. .).
In the context of
this 7th Workshop of the DHTL network we propose a re-reading of
this complex reality and the development of some design proposals aimed at
making explicit its tourist potential.
general aims of the
workshop
The workshop aims at
re-reading the complex relationship between the Palace and its territory,
starting from a reflection on landscape and tourism as opportunities to
rediscover the dynamics operating in it.
Some important
questions seem to emerge: how do we perceive the limits between the Palace
setting and its territory? To what extent do these limits operate? What role do
the territories surrounding the Park play in developing new touristic
scenarios? Starting from a dialogue with other professors and researchers and
with the local and territorial communities, we intend to identify strategic
sites in order to develop projects, both at the urban and architectural scale,
focused on the tourist enhancement of the territory outside the traditional
networks.
workshop sites
The groups of
students will be asked to work on two territories which represent two ways of
interpreting the workshop topic, starting from different scales and touristic
potentials: The Versailles Plain and the Seine banks in the Yvelines Department.
Versailles Plain
site 1 > Entrance to the Palace on the Villepreux allée royale side // Ferme de Gally // Ferme de Vauluceau // Faisanderie royale in relation
with Hameau de la Reine.
site 2 > Matelots-les Mortemets
Site
site 3 > Marly le Roi // Hydraulic system for the
Park and the aqueducts at the Chapelle des Diaconesses.
site
4 > Fort du trou d’enfer.
Stops for river
cruises on the Seine in the Department of Yvelines
site 5 > Stop Mante-la-Jolie.
site 6 > Stop Poissy.
site 7 > Stop Conflans-Sainte-Honorine.
site 8 > Stop Le Pecq.
the goals
Versailles Plain
site 1 > In relationship with the ideal farm of
the Hameau de la Reine, the system of farms
surrounding the Palace has been involved, since several years ago, by a great
transformation in terms of production and cultural and tourist enhancement. The
objective is questioning the links between rural heritage and tourism as an
opportunity to enhance the area.
site 2 > Located south of the Park of Versailles,
near the Pièce d’eaux des Suisses,
the site of the Matelots-les Mortemets plays an important
role with regard to the arrival of the forthcoming line 13 of the Grand Paris
Express. The objective is reflecting on the transformations involving this site
and the accesses to the Palace towards the allée des Mortemets and the allée des
Matelots.
site 3 > Built on a marshy plain, the Palace and
the Park of Versailles are the outcome of an important hydraulic engineering
work, whose traces are not always visible today. The objective is reflecting on
this heritage linked to water and to a technique of building the territory,
working on some of its built traces.
site 4 > Built between 1878 and 1881 to house a
garrison of 800 men, the Fort du Trou d'Enfer is part of the network of forts of the Ile-de-France
region, in defense of Paris. Closed to the public
(except for some exceptional visits), the Fort represents a valuable military
heritage, currently abandoned. The objective is reflecting on its touristic
enhancement.
Boats Stopovers on the
Seine in the Yvelines Department
The common goal of
the 4 sites is working on the to be defined relationship between the stops for
river cruises on the Seine (in the Yvelines section) and the urban centres to
which they correspond: the paths along the river, the tourist facilities, the
commercial activities, points of interest, etc.
site 5 > In the case of Mante-la-Jolie,
the built front along the Seine and the topic of sport structures and
activities related to the river will be analyzed.
site 6 > In the
case of Poissy, the relationship with Villa Savoye and the stone quarries surrounding the town will be analyzed.
site 7 > In the case of Conflans-Sainte-Honorine the relationship between the two banks of the
Seine, between the city side and the side of the ancient Ile du Devant, will be deepened.
site 8 > In the case of Le Pecq
the relationship with the terraces of the Château de Saint-Germain en Laye will be questioned.
