"For security reasons, the Palace of Versailles evacuates visitors and closes its doors for today," the establishment announced on its account on the social network X (ex-Twitter).

The residence built in the 17th century by Louis XIV, the "Sun King", about 20 kilometers southwest of Paris, It was already evacuated on Saturday in the afternoon by an anonymous bomb warning on the moncomissariat.fr site. This Tuesday's alert was received at the same site and "was not taken lightly," said a source close to the case.

"The bomb squads will work after the total evacuation," which was almost completed at the beginning of the afternoon, a police source said.

France raised the alert level on Friday to "attack emergency", after a radicalized man killed a high school teacher in Arras and in a context of tension due to the conflict between Israel and the Islamist group Hamas.
