Chalet Marie-Louise
Chalet Napoleon 3From the Second Empire, entire districts of villas emerged at the initiative of private owners under the emulation of Napoleon III. His imperial will is also expressed in this staging of the new Vichy via the existence of cottages along the current Boulevard des États-Unis…
We had the chance to visit two incredible villas in the heart of Vichy. A riad in the heart of the city or a villa with architecture untouched since its creation here is the promise of a private visit like no other.
Rue Hubert ColombierThis street lined with houses of all styles (Art Nouveau, eclectic, neo-classical, neo-gothic…) which connects the thermal district to the old Vichy. Formerly a private road, the janitor occupied the half-timbered house at n°20 built by the architect Vianne.
Crossed portraits of 3 neo-Vichy residents whose arrival in Vichy and life project contribute to the preservation of the city’s architectural heritage, and even for some to its cultural and tourist offer.
