The palace is surrounded by a 1.5 hectare park with one of the plane trees is forty meters high
A fine example of classical French architecture, the palace was built between 1718 and 1720 on the initiative of the Count of Evreux. He changes his owner on many occasions: Louis XV offers it to the Marquise de Pompadour, his favorite in 1753, then he changes his destiny to his death, and becomes the Hotel of extraordinary Ambassadors
It will then be the successive home of notables and members of the court before the Revolution. He still knows several owners, like Napoleon I and various vocations
like that of café-concert, place of pleasures of the good society, before becoming national well in 1816 and decreed residence of the President of the Republic.
The Palace has 365 rooms, ceremonial rooms on the ground floor of the main building
where visitors are welcomed, the golden lounge, the President’s office, on the first floor, as well as the offices of its collaborators. reception rooms.
The attic is converted into an apartment. It is in the east wing that are the apartments where the presidential couple live, when they choose to live in the Elysee
