Renewing your annual membership is an important and appreciated token of your loyalty. However, while the government’s budget is subject to restrictions, the Etablissement public de Versailles’ funding needs are growing. Thus, the Société also encourages support in the following ways:

Gifts
The funds will be allocated according to the patron’s wishes: the acquisition of works of art formerly in the royal collections, or restoration projects for either works of art, interior decoration and buildings or the park.

Donations of objects
This option mostly concerns owners of works of art known as having belonged to the royal family, especially for use in Versailles. Donations subject to usufruct are possible.

Bequests
The Société will use any legacy funds according to the testator’s wishes, either for acquisitions or restoration projects.
