Histori
The architect Armand-Claude Molet has a property facing the street to the village of Roule, west of Paris (now Rue du Faubourg Saint-Honorà ©), and returns to the royal property, the Grand Cours via Champs-ÃÆ'â € ° lysÃÆ'  © es. He sold this in 1718 to Louis Henri de La Tour d'Auvergne, Prince ÃÆ' â € ° vreux (family: Duke and Prince Bouillon and Sedan: La Marck | von der Marck), with the agreement that Mollet would build a hÃÆ' 'tel particulier for the count, in front of the entrance court and supported by the garden. The HÃÆ'Â'tel d'ÃÆ' â € vreux was finished and decorated by 1722, and although it has undergone many modifications since, it remains a fine example of the classic French style. At the time of his death in 1753, ÃÆ' â € ° vreux was the owner of one of the most admired houses in Paris, and it was purchased by King Louis XV as a residence for Marquise de Pompadour, his lover. Opponents show their displeasure with the regime by hanging signs at the gate that read: "House of the king's whore". After his death, he returned to the crown.
In 1773, it was bought by Nicolas Beaujon, a banker to the Court and one of the richest men in France, who needed a "country house" that fits luxury (for the city of Paris has not extended this far) to house his amazing collection of great master paintings. To this end, he hired architects ÃÆ' â € ° tienne-Louis BoullÃÆ' Â © e to make substantial changes to buildings (as well as designing English-style gardens). Soon there were exhibited such famous works as Holbein The Ambassadors (now at the National Gallery in London), and Frans Hals' Bohemian (now in the Louvre). The change of architecture and art gallery gives this international residence as "one of Paris's premier homes".
Castles and gardens were purchased from Beaujon by Bathilde d'OrlÃÆ'Â ans, Duchess of Bourbon in 1787 for 1,300,000 livres . It was the Duchess who named it ÃÆ' â € ° lysÃÆ' Â © e . He also built a group of huts in the garden which he named Hameau de Chantilly, after Hameau in ChÃÆ'Â ¢ teau de Chantilly, his father-in-law. With the French Revolution, the Duchess escaped from the country and ÃÆ' Â ¢ lysÃÆ' Â © e confiscated. It was rented out. The gardens are used for eating, drinking and dancing, under the name Hameau de Chantilly; and the rooms became a gambling house.
In 1803, ÃÆ'â € Å" lysÃÆ'Â © e was sold to Joachim Murat, and in 1808, to the Emperor, and later known as ÃÆ'â € Å" lysÃÆ'Â © e-NapolÃÆ' © on. After the Battle of Waterloo, NapolÃÆ' © returned to ÃÆ'â € ° lysÃÆ'Â © e, signing his resignation there on June 22, 1815, and leaving ÃÆ'â € Å" lysÃÆ'Â © e on the 25th.
The Russian Cossack people camped in ÃÆ'â € Å"lysÃÆ'Â © e when they occupied Paris in 1814. The property was then returned to the previous owner, Duchesse de Bourbon, who later sold it to his cousin, Louis XVIII, in 1816.
Under the temporary administration of the Second Republic, he took the name <æ> lysÃÆ'Â © e National and designated as the official residence of the President of the Republic. (The president also has the use of several other official residences, including ChÃÆ'Â ¢ teau de Rambouillet, forty five kilometers southwest of Paris, and Fort de BrÃÆ'Â © ganÃÆ'§on near Marseille.)
In 1853, after the coup that ended the Second Republic, NapolÃÆ'Â © at III accused the architect Joseph-Eugène Lacroix with renovation; while he moved to the nearby Tuileries Palace, but kept ÃÆ'â € lysÃÆ'Â © e as a secret place to meet his concubines, moving between the two palaces through a secret underground tunnel that has since been destroyed. Since Lacroix completed his work in 1867, the important display of the Palais de l'ÃÆ'â € lysÃÆ'Â © e remains the same.
In 1873, during the Third Republic, The ÃÆ'â € lysÃÆ'Â © e became the official residence of the presidency.
In 1899, FÃÆ' Â © lix Faure became the only French President who died in the palace.
In 1917, a chimpanzee escaped from near nà © nà © nagerie, entering the palace and is said to have tried to transport the wife of President Raymond Poincarà © into the tree only to be thwarted by the ÃÆ'â € lysà ©  © e guard. President Paul Deschanel, who resigned in 1920 due to mental illness, was said to be very impressed by the orangutan's achievements, so for the alarm his guests, he took to leap into the trees during the country reception.
The ÃÆ'â € Å" lysÃÆ'Â © e Palace was closed in June 1940, and remains vacant during World War II. It only resumed in 1946 by Vincent Auriol, President of the interim administration, then the first President of the Fourth Republic from 1947 to 1954.
From 1959 to 1969, ÃÆ' â € ° lysÃÆ' Â © e was occupied by Charles de Gaulle, the first President of the Fifth Republic. De Gaulle disliked the lack of privacy, and oversaw the purchase of the lavish HÃÆ'Â'tel de Marigny to invite foreign officials during a visit to France, saying, "I do not like the idea of ​​meeting kings walking around my corridor in pajamas."
In the 1970s, President Georges Pompidou had some original rooms in a palace redesigned by Pierre Paulin in a modern style, which survived only from Salle ÃÆ' Manger Paulin.
Socialist President FranÃÆ'§ois Mitterrand, who ruled from 1981 to 1995, is said to rarely use his private apartment, preferring privacy in his own home in the more bohemian Left Bank. A flat in the nearby presidential pavilion, Palais de l'Alma puts the mistress Anne Pingeot, the mother of her illegitimate daughter, Mazarine Pingeot.
Instead, his successor Jacques Chirac lived for two terms in office (1995-2007) in an apartment apartment with his wife Bernadette.
Chirac increases the Palace budget by 105% to 90 million euros per year, according to the book L'argent cachÃÆ' © de l'ÃÆ' â € ° lysà © e . One million euros a year is spent on drinks alone for guests invited to the ÃÆ'â € lysÃÆ'  © e Palace, 6.9 million euros per year for bonuses for presidential staff and 6.1 million euros per year on the 145 additional employees hired Chirac after he was elected in 1995.
The ÃÆ' â € ° lysÃÆ' Â © e has a garden, where the president hosts the party on the Bastille Day afternoon until 2010. That year, then President Nicolas Sarkozy decided to stop organizing this event due to France's high debt and economic crisis.
Emmanuel Macron, President of France since 2017, currently lives in the palace.
