Versailles Weather, When to Go and Versailles Climate Information
(Versailles, Ile-de-France, France, FR)



Located on the northern side of France, next to Paris and relatively close to the centre of the country, Versailles enjoys a fairly protected setting, with fine weather for much of the year. The seasonal climate changes in Versailles tend to be more distinct than those further south, in the French Riviera.

Winter weather can be wet and windy, and January is predictably the coldest month, when the likelihood of snowy weather is at its highest. The climate can feel colder if the winds are strong, although daytime temperatures do tend to stay around 6°C / 43°F. However, a dramatic rise in temperature can be expected from March onwards, as summer quickly approaches.




Versailles Weather and Climate: Seasonal Variations / When to Go - Versailles, France, FR
The summer climate in Versailles is often sunny, warm and enticing, and therefore when the largest numbers of tourists choose to visit the city and its beautiful palace. Many Parisians prefer to holiday during this season, to escape the hot and sticky weather, and also to escape from the crowds of sightseeing tourists.

May to September are historically the driest months. However, even though July and August do see highs of more than 25°C / 77°F, some days can be a little overcast with occasional rainy weather. Spring and autumn tend to see the greatest chance of a shower, so if visiting Versailles at this time of the year, do consider bringing an umbrella. If you are unlucky enough to visit during a rainy spell, fine weather is usually just around the corner.

Although the winter climate may be colder, a great advantage about visiting the Palace of Versailles (Château de Versailles) during the winter months is the notable lack of queues. This allows you to explore the palace and gardens more easily. Worth noting, the fountains are closed down in the winter season and do not start working again until spring arrives.
