Fountains in Versailles?
 
Hi, all:

We will stay in Paris from 07/21 to 07/24. We wanna find out which day(s) the fountains in Versailles will be on.

Any help?
Thanks!

I am nearly certain that the fountains display only operates on Sundays, but do not let that keep you from visiting the chateau and grounds, if you're interested.

By the way, here is a very informative post on a visit to Versailles:

The only reference I can find on the official site is on Sundays.

If I were more certain of my French, I would say the shows are Saturday and Sunday.

We were in Paris in May '03 and the fountains were going on Saturday as well as Sunday but there was confusion among the various travel information agencies as well as our hotel

It would appear the the confusion still exists. :-L

My understanding is that they are on, on the weekends in the summer when you have to pay to get into the gardens.
