Hôtel de Ribault, Private mansion at Place des Vosges, Paris, France.
Hôtel de Ribault is a private mansion at Place des Vosges in the 4th arrondissement of Paris. The facade displays six stone arcades with mullioned windows and wrought iron balconies overlooking the square.
The building was constructed in 1606 for Antoine Ribault, Lord of Bréau. During the French Revolution it was seized after Minister Pierre-Charles Laurent de Villedeuil emigrated from France.
The building is named after one of its early owners and displays the refined style typical of Place des Vosges residences. Its arcaded facade and wrought iron railings are part of the visual harmony that defines this celebrated square.
Visitors can observe the exterior features including the clock tower on the roof and a commemorative plaque indicating the building's former administrative function. The location on the public square allows a clear view of the entire facade from street level.
The ornate wood paneling and decorated ceilings from the alcove chamber on the second floor were removed in 1867 and now reside at the Musée Carnavalet. This room was among the most refined interiors of the original mansion and was preserved by relocating its finest elements.
