Hôtel Matignon, Official residence in Saint-Thomas-d'Aquin, Paris, France
The Hôtel Matignon contains a grand façade with a segmented cupola, a central balcony adorned with lion motifs, and interior wood paneling by Michel Lange.
Built between 1722 and 1725 by architects Jean Courtonne and Antoine Mazin, the mansion was initially commissioned by Christian-Louis de Montmorency Luxembourg.
The mansion functions as the workplace and residence of French Prime Ministers since 1959, hosting government meetings and diplomatic receptions throughout the year.
The gardens of Hôtel Matignon open to the public on the first Saturday of each month from 1 PM to 5:30 PM, offering views of historical trees.
Each French Prime Minister maintains a tradition of planting a personal tree in the mansion's gardens, which span three hectares as Paris's largest private park.
