Palais de l’Élysée

55 rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré - 75008 Paris Champs-Élysées
The Marquise de Pompadour made it her Parisian home before bequeathing it to Louis XV. From one owner to the next, this majestic building has undergone constant transformation. In 1797, it was renamed the Élysée, after the nearby promenade of the same name. It was at this time that the Duchesse de Bourbon opened up the ground floor for rental and agreed to allow her tenant to organise popular balls in the salons and garden. Number 55 of the rue du Faubourg Saint-Honoré is the headquarters of the Presidency of the Republic. The lounges, library, dining room and garden make the Palais de l'Élysée an architectural masterpiece that can only be visited during the European Heritage Days.
