Pavillon du Butard, Neoclassical hunting lodge in La Celle-Saint-Cloud, France.
The Pavillon du Butard displays symmetrical facades and proportioned elements across its stone structure within the Fausses-Reposes forest setting.
Architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel constructed this royal hunting lodge between 1750 and 1754 under the commission of King Louis XV of France.
Following the French Revolution in 1794, the pavilion changed ownership from royal property to state control, marking a shift in French society.
The pavilion remains closed to regular visits since 2015, though local preservation groups work toward organizing cultural events at the site.
Empress Josephine de Beauharnais acquired the pavilion in 1802 to expand her Malmaison estate before returning it to state ownership in 1809.
