This striking building, the Atelier Grognard, wasn’t always home to beautiful art. It was built in the 19th century during the Eiffel era, a time when iron and glass structures were all the rage. In fact, it was originally a factory where they made copper, zinc, and pewter plates for engravings and photoengravings. You can still see echoes of that industrial past in the iron and glass details that give Atelier Grognard its unique charm. Today, Atelier Grognard is a spacious art venue with over 650 square meters of exhibition space spread across two grand halls. One of these halls boasts a magnificent glass roof, flooding the space with natural light. This place has seen some incredible art exhibitions, from the works of modern masters to explorations of Napoleon’s legacy, even a fascinating display of Napoleon’s story told entirely in Lego bricks! Atelier Grognard is a testament to how beautifully the past and present can coexist.
