 | 12 Rue Vielle du Temple, Paris, 75004 |
 |
|  |
| | | A Thre star house hotel in the heart of Paris historical Marais area. A rare piano forte of 1792, a card table that appears to have been abandoned mid-play, a fire-place, candles and chandeliers recreate the atmosphere of a private townhouse in the time of Beaumarchais and Mozart. This famous, boisterous, 18th century playwright, Beaumarchais, lived close by, just up the steet at 47 rue Vieille-du-Temple. |
There he wrote in 1784 "Le Mariage de Figaro" adapted to the opera "Le Nozze di Figaro" by Mozart in 1786. There he founded in 1776 his "House of Commerce" and from 1776 to 1782 Beaumarchais provided arms and soldiers to the americans, helping their revolution and the independance of America. |
