Book the Orangery of the Domaine départemental de Sceaux

Commissioned by the Marquis de Seignelay to Jules Hardouin-Mansart, architect to Louis XIV who was famous at Versailles, the Orangery of the Parc de Sceaux was completed in 1686. Today it serves as a showcase for a collection of marble and stone sculptures that adorned the Domaine de Sceaux during the Colbert era. The Orangery has thus regained its original vocation as an art gallery and provides an original setting for your events.

Book the Aurora Pavilion

The Pavillon de l'Aurore, built in the early 1670s for Jean-Baptiste Colbert, then owner of the Domaine de Sceaux, is an exceptional building in two ways:

• Its architecture, inspired by Italian models, makes it one of the rare surviving examples in France for the 17th century.
• Its dome, painted by Charles Le Brun in 1672, with rich allegorical decoration on the theme of the Dawn.
