As it stood in 1856

What Luxembourg Palace looked like in its prime.

A long, symmetrical three-storey limestone palace with a rusticated ground floor, arched windows at street level and rectangular windows above, topped by steep slate mansard roofs and dormers. A central projecting pavilion with a carved stone pediment, clock and a small domed lantern with a flag crowns the corps de logis. The south front faces a broad formal lawn and gravel parterre, low balustraded terraces and an iron fence; flanking corner pavilions mirror one another.
