Hôtel Rothelin-Charolais, Private mansion in 7th arrondissement, France.

The mansion features an entrance hall, a grand salon, a hall of mirrors, and numerous rooms decorated with wooden paneling throughout three floors.

Built in 1703 for Philippe d'Orleans, Marquis de Rothelin, the mansion was designed by architect Pierre Cailleteau, known for his work on the Invalides dome.

The building displays architectural elements from the early 18th century, with Louis XV style decorations added during Princess of Charolais ownership after 1736.

The mansion currently houses French government offices at 101 Rue de Grenelle and remains closed to public visits except during Heritage Days.

The mansion introduced the tradition of decorated Christmas trees to Paris through Austrian ambassador's wife Pauline de Metternich during the 1860s.
