Presentation
On European Heritage Day, the Hôtel de la Comtesse du Barry opens its doors for a self-guided tour.
Built in 1751 for René Binet, valet to Louis XV and a close associate of Madame de Pompadour, this townhouse was acquired in 1772 by Madame du Barry, who established her household and her private collections there.
Following the death of Louis XV, the property was transferred to the Count of Provence, the future Louis XVIII, before being used for various military and institutional purposes during the 19th century.
Acquired in 1937 by the Versailles Chamber of Commerce, then restored and inaugurated in 1939 by President Albert Lebrun, the building now houses the headquarters of the Versailles-Yvelines Chamber of Commerce and Industry.
