Hôtel Deurbroucq

Hôtel Deurbroucq, 18th century neoclassical private mansion on Ile-Gloriette quay, Nantes, France.

Hôtel Deurbroucq is an 18th-century mansion with neoclassical design elements situated along the quay in Nantes. Its long facade showcases the balanced proportions and formal details typical of this architectural style.

Built in 1773 as a residence for a wealthy merchant involved in maritime commerce, the building endured wartime damage in the 1940s but was later reconstructed. Today it serves as an administrative building for local government functions.

The mansion reflects the prosperity that maritime trade brought to Nantes in the 1700s. Its placement along the water shows how central the river connection was to the lives of those who lived here.

The building now houses a court and is not open to visitors without official business. The best view of the facade can be enjoyed from across the quay or from the river side.

The building is part of a cluster of historic structures that together form a maritime square between two islands, marking where Nantes' port once thrived. This arrangement reveals how merchants strategically positioned their homes along the city's busiest waterway.
