Château d'Issy

At the time, Le Nôtre was undertaking modifications to the gardens of the Château de Meudon owned by the Grand Dauphin.

Louis François de Bourbon, the grandson of the Grand Conti, lost his beloved wife at the château.

When the Bourbon Restoration bought the monarchy back to France, the château was sold several times.

The sculptor Auguste Rodin repurchased the pediment of the garden façade, as well as the avant-corps columns; he set up these pieces at his property of Meudon (Hauts-de-Seine).

Most of the site is now the home of the Musée Français de la Carte à Jouer ("French Playing Card Museum").
