Hôtel de Luzy, Private mansion in 6th arrondissement, France
This mansion at 6 rue Férou preserves eighteenth-century wood paneling in its dining room and first-floor salon, demonstrating the architectural refinement characteristic of that era.
Constructed in the late seventeenth century, this residence takes its name from Mademoiselle de Luzy, a young actress who settled here in 1767 with support from Étienne-Nicolas Landry, illustrating connections between aristocracy and theatrical circles during the Ancien Régime.
The interior underwent transformation in 1920 by architects Louis Süe and André Mare, who combined Louis XVI furniture with modern artwork including pieces by Bonnard, Warhol, and Picasso within this private residence.
This building received historical monument protection in three stages: the courtyard facade in 1926, the garden facade with roof in 1952, and interior woodwork the same year as a registered monument.
Singer Jean-Jacques Goldman purchased this property in 1996 for 45 million francs, adding another chapter to the ownership record of this residence.
