Manoir de Kapados stands in Gap (Hautes-Alpes), in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur region of France. The building is listed as a historic monument (dating recorded in the Mérimée database: fourth quarter of the 19th century, first quarter of the 20th century). The building is not open to visitors.

Built in the last decades of the nineteenth century in Gap, Manoir de Kapados represents Belle Époque architecture enhanced with exotic elements. The monument's protection extends to the house itself and its surroundings: a formal garden with a basin, an orientalist-style fountain, a Moorish kiosk, and a tomb guarded by two sphinxes. The whole creates a residential setting where the exoticism of the decor complements the elegance of the manor.
