Palais de la Légion d'Honneur

[2] The interior was remodeled for that purpose by Antoine-François Peyre,[2] and new exterior sculptures were added by Jean Guillaume Moitte and Philippe-Laurent Roland.

[citation needed] An additional building was added in 1866 along the new Rue de Solférino, but the palace was burned in 1871 by the Paris Commune.

[3] The California Palace of the Legion of Honor, a three-quarter scale replica of the Hôtel de Salm, was constructed in San Francisco in 1924; it houses a fine arts museum.

In Haarlem in the Netherlands, the banker Henry Hope had his Villa Welgelegen built to resemble the Hôtel de Salm.

The architect John Nash included a domed semi-circular bow in his design for the garden front at Buckingham Palace, inspired by the Hôtel de Salm.
