The Hotel Gaillard is a Parisian mansion built between 1878 and 1882 by architect Jules Février on request of banker Emile Gaillard. It is located Place du Général Catroux, in the 17th district of Paris. The hotel hosted in late 2014 the Cité de l'économie et de la monnaie. ==The builder==
Emile Gaillard was the Parisian representative of a provincial family bank, founded in Grenoble by his grandfather Théodore François Gaillard in the 18th century. His father, Théodore Eugène Gaillard, was the mayor of Grenoble from 1858 to 1865. During his banker career, Emile Gaillard participated in the financing of railway networks, managed the Count of Chambord’s wealth, and was also Victor Hugo’s banker. His artistic sensitivity made him one of Chopin’s best students, who dedicated one of his mazurkas to him. Emile Gaillard was a collector, amateur of Middle Ages and Renaissance art. Pieces of furniture, decorative art objects, tapestries and works of art constituted his collection. This collection becoming impossible to hold in his accommodation of rue Daru, Emile Gaillard decided to have a mansion built on the Plaine Monceau, in the 17th district of Paris. He asked Jules Février to build this neo-gothic castle for him in 1878. Emile Gaillard died in 1902. After his death, the family bank was sold to Credit Lyonnais.
