Galeries Lafayette, Department store in central Angers, France
The Galeries Lafayette building features a central atrium with balconies across three levels and a metal framework facade on Rue d'Alsace.
The department store, designed by architect Auguste Martin, opened its doors on April 6, 1901, on the former gardens of a hotel.
The building combines Haussmanian architectural elements with an Eiffel-style metal structure, reflecting the design trends of early 20th century France.
The store spans 11,119 square meters and receives over one million visitors annually, with direct access from the Ralliement tram station.
In 1916, the store expanded by incorporating a former music hall theater known as Frantaisies Angevines into its structure.
