Charenton-le-Pont town hall

Since 1838, Charenton Town Hall has been housed in the pavilion built in the first quarter of the 17th century for Nicolas de Verdun, president of the Parlement de Paris (the main court of justice), who had acquired the domain from the family of the banker Barthélémy Cenamy, a close associate of Henry IV.
The only remaining part of a large estate, whose subdivision forms the heart of the current center of Charenton. Known as the Pavillon Gabrielle or Pavillon de Navarre, it is characteristic of the brick and stone buildings of the late 16th / early 17th century, modeled on the current Place des Vosges in Paris.
