116 bis, avenue des Champs-Élysées

116 bis, avenue des Champs-Élysées, Historic monument and office building on Champs-Élysées, Paris, France

The building at 116 bis Avenue des Champs-Élysées is a multi-story office structure with a distinctive zigzag facade that lets in natural light and offers views across the famous avenue. The complex blends office spaces, event venues, and entertainment facilities within one integrated structure.

The building was designed in 1931 by architect Jean Desbouis and initially housed the radio station Poste Parisien. It later became Cinema Normandie in 1937 and eventually transformed into an entertainment venue.

Le Lido cabaret occupies the ground floor and remains a major entertainment destination, while protected stained glass windows by Max Ingrand decorate the interior spaces.

The location sits near George V metro station, making it easy to reach by public transport. The complex has multiple entrances depending on which facility you want to access.

The three protected staircases and elevator shaft on Rue Lord-Byron display exceptional details of 1930s architecture. These elements are considered rare examples of the craftsmanship from that era.
