The Hôtel de la Marine : The Intendants’ Apartments

Marc-Antoine Thierry de Ville d’Avray formerly managed the Crown Jewels from this majestic palace bordering Place de la Concorde. This 18th-century jewel box showcases an exceptional scenography where period furniture and silks regain their original brilliance. Equipped with the connected headset “Le Confidant,” visitors wander at the pace of an immersive audio narration that revives the whispers of the court. The route weaves between richly decorated private residences and the spectacular loggia, before crossing the reception salons of the 19th century. A dazzling testament to the opulence of the Royal Treasury, this historically rich place makes tangible French elegance through the centuries. A sensory journey through the former offices of the Ministry of the Navy, accessible for a timeless parenthesis.
