Château du Raincy

The Château du Raincy (French pronunciation: [ʃɑto dy ʁɛ̃si]) was built between 1643 and 1650 for Jacques Bordier, Intendant des finances, following the Baroque plans drawn by architect Louis Le Vau on the site of a Benedictine priory on the road from Paris to Meaux, in the present-day commune of Le Raincy in the Seine-Saint-Denis department of France. It was destroyed in 1819.
