Hôtel de Chevreuse (rue Saint-Thomas-du-Louvre)
The Hôtel de Chevreuse was an aristocratic townhouse in Paris, France. It was built 1622–1623 to the designs of the architect Clément Métezeau for Claude of Lorraine, Duke of Chevreuse and was located on the west side of the rue Saint-Thomas-du-Louvre on a site now part of the Cour Napoléon on the west side of the Louvre. The hôtel is depicted on the 1652 Gomboust map of Paris with an entrance screen and a central porte cochère on the rue Saint-Thomas-du Louvre, a cour d'honneur with two lateral wings and a corps de logis between the entrance court and a large garden, which runs all the way to the rue Saint-Niçaise on the west. It became the Hôtel de Longueville in 1662 and was engraved by Jean Marot. It is also shown in a somewhat different configuration on the Turgot map of Paris, published in 1739. The hôtel was destroyed in 1834.
