Hôtel de Polignac, Private mansion in Condom, France.

The Hôtel de Polignac is a private mansion in Condom with neoclassical architecture distinguished by fluted Ionic columns and a triangular pediment on its main facade. The structure was built from carved limestone blocks and defines the townscape with its elegant, well-proportioned design.

Abbot Jean Marie d'Orlan de Polignac, prior of Saint-Martin de Layrac, ordered the mansion built between 1780 and 1785. Insufficient income left the construction unfinished and ruined him. Bernard Laterrade bought it, and his family kept it until the 19th century. On 10 August 1882 it was transferred to the municipality to house a boys' school, today the public elementary school Jules-Ferry.

The building's name comes from Abbot Jean Marie d'Orlan de Polignac, prior of Saint-Martin de Layrac, who ordered its construction between 1780 and 1785. Since 10 August 1882 it has housed a boys' school, today the public elementary school Jules-Ferry, so the courtyard and gates are part of a working school rather than a museum.

The building now houses the public École Jules-Ferry, so the courtyard and interior are not open to visitors; the street-side gate of Doric columns and wrought-iron grilles can be seen from the public road. Look for the two-level vaulted cellars in the substructure and the paired Ionic columns of the western facade.

The building was selected in May 2018 for the Loto du patrimoine, the national heritage lottery scheme. The western facade rises two levels above a base of two storeys of vaulted cellars, and the central projecting section is framed by paired Ionic columns carrying an iron balcony and a triangular pediment.
