Hôtel du Lion-Noir, Renaissance private mansion in Troyes, France

The three-story urban residence displays intricate stone carvings on its Renaissance facade at 111 rue Emile Zola in central Troyes.

A wealthy merchant built this residence at the end of the 16th century after a fire destroyed the previous structure on February 26, 1559.

The architectural design of Hotel du Lion-Noir represents the influence of Italian Renaissance principles on French urban construction methods.

Visitors can schedule guided tours of the mansion through Troyes La Champagne tourism office by calling 03 25 82 66 55.

The building features a rare wooden spiral staircase, an architectural element uncommon in French Renaissance private mansions.
