In 1925, a striking blend of Art Deco and Orientalism graced Le Plessis-Robinson. This architectural marvel, known as Rue du Moulin Fidel, replaced an old chateau. It owes its name to a former mill, likely named after a previous owner. Dr. Pierre Boucard, a physician who made his fortune inventing a medicine, commissioned the renowned architect Albert Laprade to design this unique residence. Rue du Moulin Fidel stands as a testament to the elegant lifestyle of the interwar period. During World War II, German officers occupied Rue du Moulin Fidel. After the Liberation, it served as a Red Cross hospital. Later, André Chauvin, owner of the office furniture company YAC, purchased the property and established his headquarters there. Today, Rue du Moulin Fidel, owned by the city, hosts various cultural events.
