Hôtel de Bernuy, Renaissance private mansion in Toulouse, France
The Hôtel de Bernuy features two interior courtyards and a 26.5-meter-high tower with seven corner windows displaying architectural excellence.
Built between 1503 and 1536 by Louis Privat, the mansion belonged to Spanish merchant Jean de Bernuy who gained fortune through pastel trade.
The building represents the transition from Gothic to Renaissance architecture in Toulouse through its combination of brick and stone construction methods.
The property now houses the Pierre de Fermat College and High School, with visits arranged through the Toulouse tourist office.
The Renaissance courtyard contains tall candelabra columns and Corinthian capitals that introduced new architectural elements to Toulouse design.

Toulouse offers numerous locations for photography beyond its main attractions. The Renaissance courtyards of Hôtel d'Assézat, the gardens of Raymond VI, and the converted water tower of Château d'Eau present architectural interest. The Garonne riverbanks, including Quai de la Daurade and Port Saint-Sauveur, provide water views. Historic buildings like Hôtel Dieu Saint-Jacques and La Grave show the city's architectural heritage. Gardens and parks such as Grand Rond and Prairie des Filtres add natural elements to urban photographs.
