Paris 2024: two years before the Olympic Games, Versailles becomes an open-air multi-sports stadium

A wide meadow quarry overlooking the Grand Canal, with the majestic silhouette of the Palace of Versailles in the background. This is what the future equestrian and modern pentathlon site of the Paris Olympics looks like today. Two years from the event, it is very difficult to imagine that here, on this plot of land baptized Royal Star under Louis XIV, a 30,000-seat stadium will be erected in the summer of 2024. An ephemeral enclosure equipped with two giant screens.
