Origin and history

The Temple of Love, located in Rueil-Malmaison in the Hauts-de-Seine, is a monument built in the 19th century. This monument, which has been on the inventory of Historic Monuments since 1965, is distinguished by its architecture and its integration into the local landscape. Its precise location, at the intersection of Avenue Marmontel and Avenue Delille, makes it a point of reference in the commune, although the accuracy of its location is considered a priori satisfactory according to available sources.

The protection of the Temple of Love, formalized by a decree of 19 October 1965, specifically concerns the structure itself, identified under the cadastral plots C3 2396p, 2399 and 2400p. This classification reflects its heritage importance, although the sources do not specify its original use or potential sponsors. The monument is part of the broader context of the Hauts-de-Seine, an area marked in the 19th century by an urban and architectural transformation, where bourgeois residences and landscape follies multiplied.

Practical information on access to the Temple of Love, such as its openness to the public or possible services (visits, rentals), is not detailed in the available sources. Its status as a Historic Monument suggests, however, both a memorial and a potential visiting site, typical of the buildings of this period preserved for their cultural and aesthetic value.
