Also per Wikipedia's Filming locations section
Wikipedia’s Filming locations section names 3 more places. A sentence in an article is weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, so these are listed apart, never mixed into the statement list, and the claim links straight to where it came from.
Places whose own article says it was shot there
1 place whose own Wikipedia article names this series as something shot there, where Wikidata records nothing and this series’s own article does not say so either. The weakest evidence on this atlas: no pin on the map, and nothing in the downloads. Each sentence is quoted whole and linked to the article it came from, so it can be judged rather than taken on trust.

Vaux-le-Vicomte France
“More recently, it featured as the Palace of Versailles for BBC/Canal+ production of the TV drama series Versailles.” Wikipedia
Recorded only at country level
Wikidata also records this series as shot in Canada, France, without saying where. Those statements are true but unmappable (a pin in the middle of a country would claim something nobody wrote), so they are listed here instead of guessed at.
