Le Château De Maisons De La Résidence Aristocratique Au Monument Historique
Auteur(s) : Collectif
François Mansart's masterpiece, a laboratory of classical architecture and the forerunner of Versailles, the Château de Maisons fascinates both by its architecture and by the illustrious people who lived there and shaped it.
From René de Longueil, who commissioned the Château de Maisons, to the Centre des Monuments Nationaux (CMN), which manages it today, all those who had the privilege of owning or administering this residence left their mark and the taste of their time. In turn builders, politicians, artists, businessmen, developers or financiers, all contributed their "stone to the building".
This book allows to discover these characters and the eventful life of a castle which concentrates three centuries of French history and which was almost destroyed at the beginning of the 20th century.
