Description
The villa was built in 1927 by the architect Sappin des Reynaud for François-Joseph Troubat, a rich industrialist, born in 1874 and died in 1968. She was designed to house her collections of furniture and works of art. Inspired by an 18th century pavilion, the facades of the building are inspired by the petty-trianon. Madame's bathroom is decorated with art deco style mosaics. In 1953, the architect P. Bougerolle enlarged the villa, adding two new round wings intended to serve as exhibition halls. An additional exhibition building, designed by the same architect, was added in 1960. In 1976, the whole was given to the city to become a museum. The park is home to high reliefs made by sculptors Fanny Rozet, Caparello and Schnedd, recovered during the demolition of a hotel in Paris on avenue des Champs-Élysées.
