The Hôtel de la Capitainerie des Chasses (lit. 'Hunting Master's Office Hotel') is a hôtel particulier and Historic Monument in Villejuif in the Val-de-Marne department, France.
History[edit]
The hotel was built around 1762 for Jacques Alexandre Gauthier de Vinfrais,[1][2] hunting inspector of the Varenne du Louvre bailiwick and commander of the Gendarmerie brigade at Villejuif.[2] Vinfrais sold out the hotel in 1797.[2]
His son-in-law, the deputy Thomas de Treil de Pardailhan, resided there from 1782 to 1795.
In 1834, the hôtel particulier was split into three separate buildings.[3] The facade was altered around 1834.
In the early 19th century, the Villejuif city council decided to locate its municipal garage there, later replaced by the municipal technical center.[2]
The facades, the roof, the coachway and the central staircase of the building were listed as a Historic Monument on September 17, 1996.[3]
