'It could have been more serious, even fatal': lead poisoning claim by Versailles restoration workers reaches court
Briefly

The trial over the Château de Versailles restoration lead poisoning centers on allegations of negligence causing harm, impacting those involved in the historical project's execution.
The saga began in 2009 with a restoration of the royal opera at the château, where workers claim they were exposed to dangerous lead dust during their work.
There are nine individuals and legal entities implicated in the case, with some facing serious charges including danger to life and witness tampering.
The delay in the trial has sparked outrage among plaintiffs, particularly after a long wait of 15 years for the case to reach a preliminary hearing.
