Origin and history

The Hotel de Sagonne, located at 28 rue des Tournelles and 23 boulevard Beaumarchais in the Marais, is the first attested work by Jules Hardouin-Mansart, built in 1667-1668 with his brother Michel. It was built on the occasion of his marriage with Anne Bodin in 1668. He became the king's first architect in 1681 and Count of Sagonne in 1699, and from 1686 he grew up and became an architect to reflect his new status, engaging renowned artists such as painters Michel and Jean-Baptiste Corneille, Charles de La Fosse, and sculptor Martin Desjardins.

The hotel consisted of three houses: that of Hardouin-Mansart and his family, an annex for his brother-in-law Robert de Cotte (architect of the King's Buildings), and a third rented, notably to Jean Aubert, disciple of Mansart. When Jules died in 1708, the hotel passed to his son Jacques, Count of Sagonne, and then to his mother-in-law Madeleine Huguény after his marriage in 1720. She retained her possession until 1753, despite the Count's debts.

When James died in 1762, the hotel fell to his niece, the Marquise d'Arpajon, and then to his heirs, the Counts of Noailles, who sold him in 1777. In the 19th century, it belonged to the entrepreneur Lazare Perrot before being transformed into apartments in the 20th century. Ranked a Historic Monument in 1943, it now houses private residences, including an apartment renovated by Studio Wood Marsh for an Australian collector.

The hotel is renowned for its sober street façade, contrasting with its rich interior decoration, including its painted ceilings rediscovered in 1924. Although closed to the public, it retains original elements such as a wrought iron staircase and hazes. Its garden, included in the ranking, completes this emblematic architectural ensemble of the Marais.

The national archives (cote MC/ET/XLIX/1391) keep records of its management, from contracts to urban privileges, covering a period from the 16th to the 19th century. The hotel thus illustrates the evolution of a place of architectural power to a private residence, while testifying to artistic patronage under Louis XIV.
