En un regard
Le château en bref
The Château de la Grève, at 28 rue Merlin-de-Thionville in Suresnes (Hauts-de-Seine), is a bourgeois house built in 1867 by the architect Charles-Hippolyte Duttenhoffer for the Meillassoux brothers, local dyers. Its name is said to derive from a strike (grève) that occurred at the time of the Universal Exhibition of that period. Built of limestone and dressed stone, roofed with zinc and slate, the building comprises a basement, a ground floor, and an attic storey beneath a roof with long broken slopes and a hipped broken roof, with an interior staircase decorated with sculpture. It is today used as a municipal facility.
