Point of interest. There is a room in the castle with an artificial marble interior. The queen preferred the artificial over the real one, because at that time is was much more expensive than buying real marble.
@@saccharinesilk at least from all I know, high-end well renowned arquitects or part of the high class (tax management) or other branches, although corrupt, they would have palaces built for them, right now i can't find the exact source but if I find it it'll keep you noted
A palace can be a residence of any noble or aristocratic family (Palazzo Medici-Ricardi, Doge's palace etc), I'm an art historian and that's literally what they're called. It's a type of residential building, not necessarily related to a royal family.
Did every European royal family look at Versailles and were like we can do better. Literally each European country and its royal family had their own Versailles
They had palaces you mean? Versailles wasn't the first Royal palace ever built? A palace is simply a type of building that royal and aristocratic families could afford to build, so they did.
@@Beanhill_94 this palace has nothing to do with Versailles. The layout, the plan, elements of architecture and interior decoration are completely different and intentionally more subdued here as this palace was build like a century after Versailles. The title is a figure of speech, as in "this palace holds the same importance in Hungary as Versailles does in France"
@@hannersification And I am talking about a common European thing where people actually got palaces built so that they could have a battle of wealth and importance. Also you're taking a joking RUclips comment too seriously
tanya that is actually partially correct. The french and their court in Versailles was considered the pinnacle of opulence and sophistication in the 17th and 18th centuries. As the result, many royal palaces in Europe intentionally sought to emulate the layout and style of Versailles, with some local flairs. Examples include the Catherine Palace of Russia, Rundale Palace of Latvia, Caserta Palace of Italy, and Charlottenburg Palace in Germany.
This palace in Gödöllő is indeed beautiful but hardly the "answer" to Versaille! The one doing that is the Esterházy Palace in Fertőd, which is not even the largest palace the Esterházys built...
This is a great channel because the videos are original. If you guys read the comments, then I have a request. Please make a video on Bran Castle, Romania. -From India
The Castle in Godollo was not as fancy as Versailles.. never wanted to compete with formalities. Sisi loved to spend time in Hungary because it was not as "formal" she enjoyed her family, being in the Country she loved!
@@crazydragy4233 yes. these videos reach huge numbers of people and it's their responsibility to educate people how to pronounce foreign words correctly as they're literally doing mini documentaries on these places and people. nobody wants to watch a documentary and be taught something wrong from it. plus why even make it if you're not gonna put that effort in?

"this is one palace truely built for a royal family" as opposed to all those palaces that aren't for royalty???
Not all palaces were for royalty
@@jaimecarbo9564 definitionally, if it isn't a royal residence, it isn't a palace

Nice villa, can't even compare to Versailles though :p
Of course it is much more simple than Versailles, because France was richer country than Hungary.
@@sectorgovernor France was very close to bankruptcy for that Versailles bullshit.

I have been there in Godollo!!! This palace is amazing..Go visit it, you won't regret it..
I am a writer in Gödöllő and I go down to that palace every second day to write and dream. Love to see it presented to foreigners
If you want to see the real Hungarian Versailles look up the Eszterházy Castle in Fertőd.
Oh my god it’s beautiful
Whoever reading so are you!
Tyy you too!🙂
Thanks from Hungary!
YoungD3mon314 don’t listen 👂🏿 to them, they’re mean. They’re just jealous that they’re not as beautiful as you!
wow it looks really beautiful! I'd love to visit someday
Wonderful! I am a fan of Queen Elisabeth and also of Hungary 😍

Gödöllő Town: Eh?
This palace in Gödöllő is indeed beautiful but hardly the "answer" to Versaille! The one doing that is the Esterházy Palace in Fertőd, which is not even the largest palace the Esterházys built...
Weird choice right ?
The music felt really out of place; kinda loud and really not fitting to the topic.
My wedding: toaster
There wedding: a mansion to answer Versailles
Empress Sissi was also quite fond of her summer palace in Corfu, The Achellion. Why don't you make video about that too ?
Thanks for the information.
Ne keresd tovább. Bojler eladó.
It's so lovely! Since it's open to people, I hope they don't try to steal
Lovely video of a lovely place. But the music was very annoying.
So nice 👍
I wish the presenter would make a little effort to pronounce the name of the castle correctly-or at least a little closer to the real Magyar word.

Absolutely beautiful! Makes the White House look kinda dumpy.

Bruh, can you EaT that?????
Lol Nice House
Hey Great Big Story, just hire a native speaker to say the names you clearly can't pronounce, huh?
P Exactly. The names aren’t even that difficult to pronounce. Google Translate will pronounce it quite accurately. They just didn’t even try.
Good luck finding native speakers for every location.
@@ligametis why? Native speakers do exist at every location 💀 they can just ask them how to pronounce names at least.
Leroset is that such a big deal tho?
