Petit hôtel de Villars
Petit hôtel de Villars, Protected private mansion in 7th arrondissement, France.
The Petit hôtel de Villars is a classical mansion with a central building framed by two symmetrical wings that enclose a paved courtyard. A garden adjoins this formal court space, creating a complete residential ensemble.
A French marshal acquired the estate in 1710 and commissioned extensive classical renovations by a prominent architect. In the 20th century it became an educational institution, ending its role as an aristocratic residence.
The mansion is named after a French marshal who made it his residence in the early 1700s. The interior spaces reflect the refined tastes of aristocratic life during that period.
The building sits on rue de Grenelle and currently operates as an educational facility. It is private property with limited public access, so advance planning may be necessary for viewings.
The site was originally transformed from farmland into a grand aristocratic residence. This conversion shows how the western areas of Paris changed dramatically in the 1700s.
