Hôtel du Plessis-Bellière, Historical mansion in Place de la Concorde, Paris, France.

The mansion stands with a neoclassical limestone facade featuring columns and ornate architectural details on Place de la Concorde's western side.

King Louis XV commissioned architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel in 1758 to create two identical facades on either side of Rue Royale at Place Louis XV.

The building represents French aristocratic architecture from the 18th century, demonstrating the period's sophisticated construction methods and social hierarchy.

The mansion, now part of Automobile Club de France, maintains restricted access with visible exterior elements from Place de la Concorde.

A precise replica of this mansion exists in Philadelphia, where it functions as the Free Library, constructed by architects Horace Trumbauer and Julian Abele.

Location: 8th arrondissement of Paris

Architects: Ange-Jacques Gabriel
