A villa built in Poissy between 1928 and 1931 (UNESCO World Heritage Site)
The Villa Savoye in Poissy
- A visit to this villa allows you to discover the work of Le Corbusier (whose real name was Charles-Édouard Jeanneret).
- And more specifically, the 5 founding elements of its architecture: the stilts, the roof terrace, the plan, the banded windows and the free façade
- This villa was classified as a historical monument while Le Corbusier was still alive
- It is very avant-garde, of great modernism for the time, a “box in the air” built of reinforced concrete
- This house was the weekend home of the Lille family of industrialists, the Savoyes
♡ Our opinion on this tour
- It is fascinating for those interested in architecture or for all those who are unfamiliar with the work of Le Corbusier
- It makes it possible to raise awareness among young people of architecture and the phenomenon of Le Corbusier, architect, but also urban planner, decorator, sculptor and painter
- You can download the children’s booklet before your visit: it tells children the history of this house, presents Le Corbusier, the villa in the form of small quizzes and games
