Charming private pavilion that was built in the middle of XVII century, surrounded by a small but very pleasant park, great place to relax in on a sunny day. It was built on the order of Louise Vendome for his lovers, and an original shape of the balconies decoration witnesses that it was meant as a place for passion :)
The park is open every day until 6pm, the pavilion now hosts temporary art exhibitions.
