Hôtel de Boisgelin, Private mansion on Place des Quatre-Dauphins in Aix-en-Provence, France
The building exhibits seventeenth-century architecture with its orange-yellow stone facade from Bibémus quarries and large arches in the northern courtyard.
Built in 1650 under King Louis XIV's authorization, allowing Archbishop Michel Mazarin to expand the city southward, on land belonging to the Order of Malta.
Painted ceilings and plaster reliefs decorate the interior of this residence, while a polychrome marble marquetry staircase was added in 1875.
The property stands at 11 rue du Quatre Septembre, accessible from Place des Quatre-Dauphins, in the heart of the Mazarin district of Aix-en-Provence.
The location has served as a setting for several film productions, including The Horseman on the Roof in 2005 and A View of Love in 2009.
