A surreal universe

The visit of the apartments – which lasts 45 minutes for the fairs, 1h30 for the grand tour – plunges visitors into a unique universe, while remaining very realistic. Accompanied by a headset offering spatialized 3D sound, they discover in total immersion, sumptuous apartments completely refurnished in the Palace of Versailles style, ceremonial lounges, a sumptuous glass roof signed by the star architect Hugh Dutton (and whose shape is reminiscent of a diamond) not to mention the breathtaking view of the Place de la Concorde... The highlight of the show? The dining room, reconstructed 'as is' with glasses of wine, plates of oysters and other favorite dishes of the time. A super instagrammable scene!

Within this building designed by the first architect of King Louis XV, the modern scenography highlights the issues concerning the sea. It also looks back on its long history since the Hôtel de la Marine was originally designed as the Crown storage room, before becoming one of the first Parisian museums .

A new place to live for Parisians

Much more than a simple monument, the Hôtel de la Marine reconnects with the spirit of the Place de la Concorde of yesteryear: a high-society meeting place highly prized by the Parisian fauna! Besides the museum, Parisians go there mainly to treat themselves to a break, on the terrace of the Cafe Laperouse. Breakfast, afterwork or aperitif with friends… Any occasion is good to squat on this pretty patio sheltered from the urban frenzy!
