Le Marquis de Tristan

35m2 / 2 guests

The Marquis de Tristan would surely have appreciated the comfort this room offers today. He was the man behind the present mansion, built from 1757 on the site of the former Hôtel des Trésoriers de la Sainte-Chapelle, before his son sold it to the Marquis de Panette in 1818. Today, this 35 sqm historic room offers an intimate stay in the hushed atmosphere of an 18th-century private mansion. Oak flooring, a small sitting area, a quiet desk and a bathroom with bathtub create a refined sense of comfort. A room where you can sleep within history, while enjoying the pleasure of a true moment for two.

Installation details

On April 25, 1757, by order of the sovereign, the Sainte Chapelle de Bourges
was destroyed and the house of the Lord Trésorier was ordered to be put up for sale as it was. Lord Tristan who will buy it for 10,000 livres.

We do not know the state of the building and the work that has been carried out at the time.

Tristan will die before 1762, leaving his two sons who were then raised by
their uncle, responsible for finances in 1776.

The eldest was admitted to the 1st company of musketeers of the Guard at the age of 16.

Returning to Bourges 3 years later, the Marquis married Mme Moreau de
Chassy.

Devoting himself to works of the mind, he participates in the first Masonic
lodge of the city. He also joined La Minerve, the new workshop set up in
1787 by the local nobility.

A liberal aristocrat, Tristan is far from being a declared enemy of the
Revolution.

Struck by the premature loss of his wife and the low longevity of his
children, the Marquis de Tristan will live alone, dividing his days between
the castle of Soupize and the apartment of which he kept the usufruct in
Bourges, in the private mansion which he had sold in 1818 to the chief land surveyor : Gabriel de Panette.
