The historic hotel of Tenremonde in Lille, France

A tour through the centuries at the once luxurious, now architect firm headquarters of the Hôtel de Tenremonde in Lille, France.

The **Hôtel de Tenremonde** is an old [hotel particular](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hôtel_particulier) located at 18 [rue Jean-Moulin](<https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rue_Jean-Moulin_(Lille)>), (ancienne rue du Marais) in [Lille](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lille), in the department of the [Nord](<https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nord_(département_français)>).

Erected at the end of the [17th century](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/17th_century) by Louis François de Tenremonde, the hotel was remodeled at the end of the [18th century](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/18th_century) in a classical French style. Converted into a post office at the [19th century](https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/19th_century), it later became an elementary school for women. Today, Hôtel de Tenremonde is the headquarters of the Pierre-Louis Carlier architectural firm.

The building currently houses a architecture firm, so it still plays a role in building and construction, one could say that it finds a new life.
