Villa La Roche

A wonderful hidden architectural gem in Paris. If you are a fan of Le Corbusier’s work, I highly recommend visiting if you get the chance. A particularly good activity for a rainy day! Very close to the metro station, allowing for easy access. The guide given at reception explains the story of the building well, and the building itself is very interesting to explore.

Good example, however it was a bit Spartan, it may have been preferable to have some more period furniture inside to see how it was ‘lived in’ rather than the odd photo from the past. Felt a bit cold and empty. Still worth a visit.

If you are into art, architecture and also intrigued by Corbusier’s sense of design, this villa should definitely be on your list to visit in Paris. It’s located on a quiet lane in the 16th. And so calm so you can take your time and really sense the way Corbusier wanted to design and style this villa. I definitely recommend this.

Came here during my architectural study field trip and was mesmerized by the building. Obviously, since its such an important historical building, we had to deal with much regulations such as putting on plastic covers for our shoes so as not to dirty the venue but apart from this, its a real architect's playhouse.

My favorite place in paris where worths to go every season. When I went there, it was cozy, not so crowded. Wanted to learn more about Corbusier

beautiful modernist villa! a must-go spot for any architecture passionate people

Excellent to experience the atmosphere of the house and try some of the furniture pieces. Slightly hidden away down a street in the middle of the block - follow the street signs. Visited with a combined ticket with the nearby Le Corbusier apartment - would recommend .

Fantastic example of preserved Le Corbusier 's authentic architecture! 💛

A few tips: Only the Maison La Roche half is visitable. You have to ring the bell for entry. You need to wear disposable booties. No touching or leaning on the walls or furniture. Villa Savoye has a much better gift shop.

a mandatory visit for any architect. consists of two buildings at the end of a cul-de-sac, Maison La Roche (which is the museum) and Maison Jeanneret (hosting now the foundation's administration) and has arguably the largest collection of le corbusier documents, drawings, photographs, paintings, etc. corbu himself established the foundation as sole girator of his works. they not only host the artwork and documents he left them but also have decision power for any renovations of his buildings (see the current ronchamp addition controversy) it was closed for renovations a few years ago but should probably be open by now.
