Origin and history

The Hotel de Saxony is a historic monument located at 3 Malaquais quai, in the 6th arrondissement of Paris. Built in the 17th century, it is a typical example of the Parisian civil architecture of this period. Its facades on the wharf and courtyard, as well as its roofs, were protected by a classification order dated July 26, 1949, highlighting their heritage value.

The building is now owned by the municipality of Paris. Although the information on its current use is limited (visit, room rental or unspecified guest rooms), its location on the Malaquais wharf, on the banks of the Seine, makes it a remarkable part of the Parisian urban landscape. The accuracy of its geographical location is estimated as fair (level 5/10), based on available data.

The 17th century in Paris was marked by a significant urban and architectural expansion, with the construction of many private hotels for the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie. These buildings served as both residences and symbols of social status. The Hotel de Saxony is in this context, reflecting the artistic trends and lifestyles of the time, although details specific to its history or its occupants are not mentioned in the sources consulted.
