Hôtel de La Trémoille (Residence of the Serbian ambassador in France)

This mansion was built by the architect Paul-Ernest Sanson for Louis Charles Marie de La Trémoille. The construction started in 1912.

The Duke of Trémoille (belonging to a family dating back to the 13th century), member of parliament of the Gironde and owner of Château de Serrant in Anjou, commissioned the construction of a Paris mansion that was to combine comfort and style.

Paul-Ernest Sanson (1836–1918) was one of the most renowned architects in the private-residences domain at the time. The construction was not completed until 1920, after the death of the architect, and was finished by his son and grandson.

After the duke's death, it was inhabited by Hélène Marie Léonie Pillet-Will, daughter of the count Frédéric Pillet-Will, before being sold, in 1936, by the family of Trémoille, to Yugoslavia.

The first tenant of the premises was Božidar Purić, the ambassador between 1936 and 1940, who was the architect of the Little Entente. Tito's mbassador regularly hosted in the rooms of the residence many representatives of the French post-war intelligentsia.: Louis Aragon with Elsa Triolet, André Malraux, Paul Eluard, Marc Chagall, and André Breton.

Today, the house is property of the Republic of Serbia.
