Description:
Album showing exterior and interior views of the "Château de Madrid" in Bois de Boulogne (boulevard Richard Wallace, Neuilly-sur-Seine), France. This Château was built in 1912 (a drawing of the building in the album bears the date 1910) in the Renaissance style where used to stand the "Château de Boulogne", afterwards named the "Château de Madrid", built by François 1er between 1528 and 1568. The name evokes the short captivity of the King in Spain. The castle was sold in 1792 and demantled to recuperate the materials. The building showed in the album is also named "Château de Madrid" as seen on a post-sign in one of the photographs. This building is also visible on some old postcards (cf. documentation). Also visible on another post-sign, is the street name 'Avenue Richard Wallace'. Corbel writes (p. 57), that in 1851, the 'Madrid Restaurant' was located at the end of Saint-James, in a secluded area of the Bois de Boulogne. On page 58, he states that in 1870, the restaurant became one of the general quarters for the defense of Paris and that in 1912, it was reconstructed, probably referring to the same building. Also, in 1922, a special dinner was given in honour of the emperor Khaï-Dinh. Further research may provide more information on this specific building which seems to have since disappeared. Other views in this album, show the Café Meyer, the Café Restaurant Cardinal in Paris (one of the oldest of Paris) and other views of buildings and interiors of Paris.
