Immeuble Molitor

Immeuble Molitor is an eight-story residential building with modern architecture on the border between Paris and Boulogne-Billancourt. The structure features glass facades and concrete columns that support the entire framework.

The building was designed in 1934 by Le Corbusier and Pierre Jeanneret and marked a turning point in European residential architecture. Construction survived financial difficulties in its early phase and became a model for future designs.

This building represents modernism through open floor plans and large glass surfaces that were completely new at the time. Visitors see how Le Corbusier advocated for bright, airy spaces.

The building is open to visitors on Saturdays, though you should check in advance which areas are accessible. Plan enough time to explore both the apartment and studio spaces during your visit.

Le Corbusier occupied the top two floors from 1934 and used them as both private residence and workplace. In these spaces he created a laboratory for his design principles that few visitors get to see.
