Hôtel de Lesdiguières, Heritage mansion in central Grenoble, France
The Hôtel de Lesdiguières is a private mansion at the corner of rue Hector-Berlioz, featuring classical architecture with symmetrical windows and decorative stone elements across its facade. The building displays carefully balanced proportions and refined architectural details.
François de Bonne, Lieutenant General of Dauphiné, commissioned architect Pierre La Cuisse to construct this urban residence in 1602 as his personal dwelling. The project reflected the wealth and influence of Dauphiné's powerful families during that era.
After serving as city hall until 1967, the building now houses the International Relations Department with exhibition spaces and a children's library inside.
The building remains open throughout the year for visitors to explore its classical rooms and exhibitions. Tram lines A and B serve the area, with the closest stop at Hubert Dubedout station.
The adjacent city garden spreads across three levels and features a sculptured water basin and flowered walkways that create a peaceful retreat. This green space contrasts sharply with the urban surroundings.
