Built in 1807, this mansion was quickly assigned to the King of Rome, son of Napoleon I and Marie-Louise of Austria. In the 1830s it was divided among several owners and lost its central part. The Orchard Pavilion is now located in the garden adjacent to the public area. This small garden pavilion, recently restored, is dated to the early 1770s.

About the location

Palais du roi de Rome et pavillon du Verger

Place du Roi-de-Rome 78120 Rambouillet

Yvelines
Île-de-France

Built in 1807, this mansion was quickly assigned to the son of Napoleon I and Marie-Louise of Austria. But today it is a mutilated monument, since the destruction of the central body in the 1830s. The two preserved pavilions were inscribed in the Supplementary Inventory of Historic Monuments for their facades and roofs in 1966\. The facades and roofs of the Western Pavilion were subsequently classified in 1995\. Facing the western garden façade, the Verger Pavilion, which now houses the offices of the Culture and Municipal Heritage Department, date of 1718 and retains a decoration of woodwork and medallions from the end of the reign of Louis XVI which earned him to be included in the Supplementary Inventory since 1989.
