I believe the answer is:

versailles

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'palace' is the definition.
(I know that Versailles is a palace)

I can't explain the rest of the clue.

(Other definitions for versailles that I've seen before include "Palace near Paris" , "French palace" , "Royal Court" , "Palace built by Louis XIV" , "Louis XIV's palace; WW one treaty" .)

I've seen this clue in The Everyman puzzle in The Observer.
