Hôtel de la Marine
Hôtel de la Marine is a historic building which was built between 1757 and 1774 by the royal architect Ange-Jacques Gabriel on Place de la Concorde in Paris.
The building was originally housing the royal Garde-Mobile, the administration of royal furnishing, together with a library, a chapel, and apartments.
Following the French Revolution in 1789 Hôtel de la Marine became headquarters of the Ministry of the French Navy until an extensive renovation project was initiated in 2015.
