Versailles

French city and commune in Yvelines, in Île-de-France

🇫🇷 France · 48.8050, 2.1350

Versailles is named as a filming location in the Wikipedia articles of 5 productions — in the section each entry below links back to. No Wikidata filming statement points here yet, so this page says plainly which kind of evidence it rests on. 1 manga is also set here.

9 productions were filmed at 6 places inside Versailles rather than at Versailles itself — listed below, each with the place it was shot.

“The Bride Wore Black was shot from 16 May to 24 July 1967 in and around Paris and in Versailles, Chevilly-Larue, Senlis and Cannes.”

Filmed here, per Wikipedia

Productions whose English Wikipedia article names Versailles as somewhere it was shot, with no matching statement on Wikidata. Weaker evidence than a Wikidata statement, and labelled as what it is — each production’s own page links the exact section the claim comes from.

Movies and TV series filmed elsewhere in Versailles

9 productions shot at 6 places inside Versailles, each named beside it. Separate from the list above, which is what Wikidata records against Versailles itself.

Named here by Versailles’s own Wikipedia article

Productions this page’s own Wikipedia article says were shot at Versailles, where neither Wikidata nor the production’s own article records it. That is the weakest evidence on this atlas, so these get no pin on the map and stay out of the downloads — the sentence is quoted in full below each one so you can judge it.

Set here

Manga that take place here. Nothing drawn was ever filmed here, so this is where the story is set rather than where a camera stood — a different claim from everything above, and kept under its own heading for that reason.

Set here, per Wikipedia

Games whose English Wikipedia article says they are set in Versailles, where Wikidata’s narrative-location statement stops at the country. Still a setting and not a shoot, and still a sentence rather than a statement — two steps from the strongest evidence on this atlas, and labelled at both.

  • Assassin's Creed Unity
    “The setting is divided into seven major districts—Le Louvre, Île de la Cité, Le Marais, La Bièvre, Les Invalides, Quartier Latin, and Ventre de Paris—and also includes the town of Versailles, located on the outskirts of Paris.” Wikipedia
