Maison des musiciens italiens, Historical residence in Versailles, France.

The mansion at 15 Rue Champ-Lagarde features a central pavilion with rocaille architecture and two lateral wings surrounded by garden spaces.

Built in 1752 by architect Jacques Hardouin-Mansart for the Countess of Argenson, replacing an earlier structure owned by Italian castrati singers.

The building now serves as headquarters for the Union Compagnonnique des Compagnons du Tour de France, preserving traditional French craftsmanship.

Visitors can access guided tours of the property through the Versailles Tourism Office, with advance reservations required for individual and group visits.

A botanical garden existed on the property when owned by botanist Louis-Guillaume Le Monnier until 1799, before the domain was divided.
