Rating: 8,4/10 (1242 votes) This building is currently the residence of the French Prime Minister. Here are his offices, private apartments, as well as several reception rooms. The fate of this palace is unenviable. It became the property of France only at the end of the First World War. Prior to this, the building, not yet fully completed since the 18th century, was passed from one noble family to another, sold, seized, donated. In addition to the palace building, interest can be quite large, with an area of 2 hectare park, laid out in the backyard. An interesting tradition is associated with this park. Every new Prime Minister of France is obliged to plant a tree here at the entrance to the palace.
