Origin of Versailles
The city of Versailles was initially a poor settlement located in the center of the forests and swamps of the Val de Galie. The castle of Versailles, which lies to the north, was built behind an expanse of oaks that were once used for the offerings of the Druids.
Surroundings of Versailles
Further back from the Chesnay cottages, another castle, Rocquencourt, is situated on the slope of a wooded hill next to the plain and the hamlets surrounding the churches. Towards the east, there is a large pond at Clagny where a large, robust tower rises with its four stories. At Glatigny, there is a manor that completed the defense of the borough of Montreuil. There was also a hospital for lepers built next to the same large pond near Montbauron, which belonged to Celestine monks. Still another castle in the south was adorned with small towers and surrounded by large ditches. It was built by the sommelier of King John II of France, Étienne Porcher, and contained farms and barns. Finally, towards the west is the Mont de Versailles with a windmill at its summit. The village of Versailles, with its Saint-Julien church, stood on the southern part of this mountain. Between the church and the mill, one finds the remains of a castle that was once a castle. If one still pushes towards the west, there is a large expanse of forest full of game. The village of Choisy-aux-Bœufs is on the right, and the village of Trianon is on the left, which has its own church.
The town of Versailles
The town of Versailles was situated within a quadrilateral between the present-day streets of Saint-Julien, Satory, the Orangery, and the American Independence, forming the outskirts of the city of Versailles. The Mont de Versailles welcomed the seigneurial castle to the north of the city, and at the present location of the Grand Commun was the church of Saint-Julien. In place of the little seminary and the Hotel d'Orleans in the Rue du Vieux-Versailles, it was the cemetery.
The etymology of Versailles
The name "Versailles" is derived from the Latin word "versus" (verse) and "-alia" (place), which in the eleventh century referred to "ploughed land". In Old French, the definition of this word is "land cleared", similar to "essart", hence the name of one of its communes, Les Essarts-le-Roi near Rambouillet. However, it is mainly a plain abandoned to the "projecting verses" and/or "salient waters", where King Louis XIII of France often hunted. Due to the dirtiness of the surrounding ponds, during the construction of the castle, more than 3,000 people died as a result of malaria, which has the same etymology as "Aquarius", the sign of water: downpour or weir. The town of Versailles in Dombes (Ain) whose collective source confirms the territorial hydrological aspect.
