Château de Saint-Ouen, Neoclassical château in Saint-Ouen-sur-Seine, France

Description

Château de Saint-Ouen is a neoclassical building with a cubic structure, symmetrical facades, and dressed stone construction. The building features a ground floor, two upper stories, and an attic level capped by a pavilion-style roof.

History

King Louis XVIII signed the Declaration of Saint-Ouen here on May 2, 1814, initiating France's restoration period. This event made the site a center of political change during the early 19th century.

Culture

The dining room displays twelve columns that mimic marble, while the billiard room contains gilded decorations and marble tiles marking former gaming layouts. These details reveal how the house was designed for entertainment of a wealthy household.

Practical

The building now houses a municipal conservatory for music, theater, and dance instruction serving the local community. As a public cultural center, it operates with regular teaching programs throughout the year.
