Villa Monéjan, Historic villa in Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, France.
Villa Monéjan is a three-storey villa on Avenue Saint-Jean in the Village Suisse sector of Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, built in the Alpine style by contractor Degallaix to plans by architect Anatole Bienaimé. Its upper walls mix brick and checkerboard-patterned stone beneath a red tiled roof, with two covered wooden balconies and grey railings. The pale stone ground floor holds large glass windows and the sign of a real estate agency.
Villa Monéjan was built in the early 20th century to designs by Anatole Bienaimé, one of the main architects of Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, with Degallaix as contractor. It belonged to Simone and Jean Trogneux, who gave it its name; their daughter Brigitte Macron inherited it, first as bare ownership in the 1980s, then fully in 1994. Renovated around 2012-13, it was sold on 28 April 2025 for 3.6 million euros.
The name Monéjan was coined by Simone and Jean Trogneux, the couple who owned the villa; Jean Trogneux (1909-1994) loved the house, and his daughter Brigitte Macron, who spent holidays there from the age of five, inherited it. Since December 2025 the ground floor has hosted a temporary exhibition of around twenty artists, mostly Polish, organised by Dagmara Kowal of Dagart Galerie.
The address on Avenue Saint-Jean sits in a quiet residential neighborhood, just a short walk from the beach and the town center. The building is a private residence and not open to visitors.
