Hôtel de Mercy-Argenteau, Private mansion in 9th arrondissement, Paris, France.

The building features eleven arched windows across its facade and includes a monumental entrance hall illuminated by a decorative glass ceiling.

Jean-Joseph de Laborde commissioned architect Firmin Perlin to build this mansion in 1778, later selling it to Count Mercy-Argenteau, imperial ambassador.

The first floor contains a Louis XVI salon decorated with Corinthian columns and allegorical bas-reliefs positioned above the doorways.

The mansion operates as a private property with limited public access, except during special heritage events when certain areas become accessible.

Between 2013 and 2019, this historical mansion served as Mozilla's Paris headquarters, bridging 18th-century architecture with modern technology development.
