Luxembourg Garden and Palace

Paris, North-East France, France

Luxembourg Garden and Palace were built for Marie Medici, who desired to live in a building similar to her native Florentine palazzo. In 1612 she bought the palace of duke of Luxembourg with its fairly extensive domain and commissioned the new building in 1615, which is today called Luxembourg Palace.
