Origin and history

The mansion located in 5 Place d'Iéna, in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, is a monument whose historical data are still limited. No construction period or significant event is explicitly mentioned in the internal sources consulted. Parisian private hotels, like this one, were traditionally urban residences intended for the aristocracy or the affluent bourgeoisie.

In Paris, these buildings often reflected the social prestige of their owners and played a role in the social life of the city, especially in residential areas such as the 16th arrondissement.
