About this experience
Visit the 18th-century Palais Rohan (City Hall of Bordeaux), originally built for Archbishop Ferdinand Maximilien Mériadec de Rohan. The structure features a central building with two lower wings. With a guide, see this key piece of Bordeaux's history.
Over the centuries, Palais Rohan has served many roles: as the Archbishop's residence, the Revolutionary Tribunal, and the Departmental and Prefecture Hotel. Since 1836, it has been Bordeaux’s City Hall.
Behind its Louis XVI facade, find the grand staircase, former salons, and the municipal council chamber, completed in 1889 in the style of the Third Republic.
On this guided tour, explore how the Palais Rohan blends historical heritage with the functions of the Bordeaux City Hall.
