Hôtel de Masseran, Neoclassical mansion in 7th arrondissement, France.

The Hôtel de Masseran is a neoclassical mansion located in the 7th arrondissement of Paris. Its garden-facing façade features Corinthian pilasters, while the building combines grand interior spaces with substantial grounds.

The mansion was constructed in 1787 by architect Alexandre-Théodore Brongniart for an Italian nobleman with ties to the French royal family. It subsequently became an important symbol of wealthy living during the final decades of the Ancien Régime.

The mansion served as a gathering place for Paris high society and shaped the city's fashionable social life. Its rooms and gardens reflect the taste of wealthy aristocrats for elegant entertaining.

The building is located on rue Masseran and is not open to the public as it remains a private residence. It can be admired from outside, and it is worth observing the details of the neoclassical façade from the street.

The mansion inspired French author Raymond Radiguet to write a novel centered on the elegance and social dynamics of wealthy Parisian circles. This literary connection linked the building to both architectural and cultural history.
