Maison des Colonnes et grotte du château de Bellevue stands in Meudon (Hauts-de-Seine), in the Île-de-France region of France. The building is registered as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: 18th century, 19th century). Its opening hours and prices have not been verified at the source yet.
The Maison des Colonnes and its artificial grotto are the surviving elements of an 18th-century garden created for Mesdames Adélaïde and Victoire, daughters of Louis XV, on the former Bellevue estate in Meudon. Together they reflect the period's taste for garden follies paired with rockwork grottoes. The site now stands within the grounds of a private healthcare facility, which strongly limits any possibility of a visit.
What to know
- The monument has been listed as a historic monument since a 1990 inscription order.
- The plot in question now lies within the grounds of a private clinic, so free access is uncertain.
- No visiting hours or admission fees are available for this site.
- Any possible visit concerns only the Maison des Colonnes and the grotto, not the whole Bellevue estate.
