Hôtel de Coulanges, Private mansion in Place des Vosges, Paris, France

The Hôtel de Coulanges stands with classical architectural elements on Place des Vosges, featuring protected facades and roofing structures at number 1bis.

Built in 1607 for Philippe I de Coulanges and Marie de Bèze, this residence became the birthplace of Marie de Rabutin-Chantal, later Madame de Sévigné, in 1626.

The mansion served as a dance studio when American dancer Isadora Duncan rented the space between 1910 and 1912, converting the reception hall.

The building underwent extensive restoration work starting in 1963, and in 2016 entrepreneur Xavier Niel acquired the property for 33 million euros.

Post-impressionist painter Georges Dufrénoy resided in this mansion from 1871 to 1914, marking a significant period in the building's artistic legacy.

Location: 4th arrondissement of Paris
