Villa Cavrois Tickets
Villa Cavrois tickets give you access to one of France's finest examples of modernist architecture. Built between 1929 and 1932 by architect Robert Mallet-Stevens for textile industrialist Paul Cavrois, this remarkable villa showcases the geometric precision and clean lines that defined early 20th-century design.
Inside, you'll explore bright, spacious rooms illuminated by floor-to-ceiling windows and strategically placed skylights. The villa features original furnishings, elegant fireplaces, and functional elements that demonstrate Mallet-Stevens' mastery of proportion, light, and harmony. Each room tells the story of a prominent French family's lifestyle whilst showcasing innovative design principles that influenced modern architecture.
The villa's exterior is equally impressive, centred around a 72-metre-long reflecting pool that mirrors the main structure. The carefully landscaped grounds blur the boundaries between indoor and outdoor living, creating a cohesive modernist vision that remains as striking today as it was nearly a century ago.
