Cité Elgé


Cité Elgé were French film studios located in Paris. They were constructed in 1905 in the Buttes-Chaumont area of the city by the Gaumont Film Company, a pioneer of European cinema. They were also known as the Studios des Buttes-Chaumont. For a period they were the largest studios in the world.
In 1953 the studios came under the control of the RTF television organisation. They closed in the 1990s and were redeveloped for residential use.
