About the location

Palais Cambon - Cour des comptes

13 rue Cambon 75001 Paris

Paris
Île-de-France

The Cambon Palace was built between 1898 and 1910 by the architect Constant Moyaux on the site of the former convent of the Ladies of the Assumption of Cambon Street, whose chapel still survives. The Palace became the seat of the Court of Auditors, created in 1807 by Napoleon I, and houses its magistrates and administration. It consists of four wings around a courtyard of honor. The most important rooms are concentrated on the first floor, with the Grand'Chambre and the library. The main staircase is decorated with a ceiling painted in 1911 by Gervex and representing an allegory of the State. Eight pieces of decoration or movable objects are classified as historical monuments.
