The Hôtel de la Marine, also known as Hôtel du Garde-Meuble, is a historic building situated in the heart of Paris. It is located in the famous Place de la Concorde, to the east of Rue Royale. This location makes it easily accessible and a convenient stop for tourists exploring the city.

Historical Significance and Architecture

The Hôtel de la Marine boasts a rich history, having been constructed between 1757 and 1774. The facade of the building was designed by Ange-Jacques Gabriel, who was the chief architect of the king at the time. This gives the building a unique architectural style that is representative of the period.

Public Access and Usage

Originally, the Hôtel de la Marine belonged entirely to the Crown and was used by the Garde-Meuble. The galleries of the building were open to the public from 9 am to 1 pm on the first Tuesday of every month between Easter and All Saints' Day. This tradition of public access continues today, making it a popular destination for tourists.
