Origin and history

The hotel of Mailly-Nesle, built between 1633 and 1634 for Jean de Monchy, lord of Mont-Cavrel, then passed to the family of Mailly-Nesle. In the 18th century, it was rented to personalities such as the Prince of Liechtenstein or the Duke of Aumont, then used as barracks. After the Revolution, it became a repository of confiscated art objects, before being sold and partially destroyed in the 19th century.

Only the wing along the Rue de Beaune remains after batch sales in 1868. Acquired by the State in 1941, the building successively houses the Official Journals and the French Documentation. Since 2018, it has been entrusted to the Musée d'Orsay to install the future Daniel Marchesseau Resource Centre, with an opening scheduled for 2027.

Ranked as a Historic Monument in 1938, then re-registered in 2025, the hotel preserves notable interior decorations (golden lounges, Regency, Management Board) and a 17th century staircase. The woodwork at La Bérain, transferred to the Château de La Borde, bears witness to its aristocratic past.

The site, located 29 Quai Voltaire and 2-4 rue de Beaune, illustrates the evolution of Parisian private hotels, between aristocratic fascists, revolutionary transformations and modern reallocations.
