Pavillon Vendôme, Architectural museum in Aix-en-Provence, France

The Pavillon Vendôme features classical architectural elements constructed with Bibémus quarry stones, including Doric, Ionic, and composite pilasters on its exterior.

Construction of the pavilion began in 1665 under architect Antoine Matisse, initially with one floor and a Mansard roof for Duke Louis de Mercœur.

The building houses contemporary art exhibitions and photography displays in its rooms, which contain painted ceilings and period furniture collections.

The pavilion maintains two separate entrances, located at 34 rue Célony and 13 rue de la Molle in central Aix-en-Provence.

The French-style garden surrounding the pavilion has been reconstructed according to historical documents and received monument status protection in 1953.
