Hôtel de Vogüé, Renaissance private mansion in Dijon, France

The mansion features an entrance porch with carved bosses leading to a courtyard with a sculpted portico and Renaissance architectural elements.

Etienne Bouhier, a Burgundy Parliament Councillor and art collector, commissioned the construction of this mansion in 1614 before the Vogüé family acquired it in 1766.

The Guard Room contains a French-style ceiling decorated with landscapes and pastoral scenes, complemented by a grand fireplace with polychrome marble inlays.

Located at 8 Rue de la Chouette, the mansion currently houses the Human Resources Department of Dijon while maintaining spaces for temporary art exhibitions.

The mansion's architectural design influenced private buildings throughout Dijon, combining Italian Renaissance elements with emerging classical French styles of the 17th century.
