Origin and history
The Hotel de Raguse, located at 51 rue de Paradis in the 10th arrondissement of Paris, is an emblematic building of the first half of the 19th century. Ranked a Historic Monument, it is distinguished by its protected elements, including the fireplace of the large living room and the First Empire decoration of the second living room, registered since 1927. These architectural details reflect the style and prestige of the Napoleonic era, during which time the hotel was a place of life and reception for the Parisian aristocracy.
The Duke of Ragusa, a central figure in the history of this place, married and resided there, thus marking his heritage in this building. Although information on its current use (visits, rentals, accommodation) is missing from the available sources, its heritage importance remains indisputable. The hotel's location, noted as "passable" in terms of accuracy, and its official address in the Mérimée base confirm its anchoring in the historic Parisian landscape.
Available data from Monumentum and the internal archives highlight the artistic and historical value of the Hotel de Raguse. Its architecture and history make it a valuable testimony to urban planning and the way of life of elites under the First Empire and Restoration.
