History of Château Soligny in Cannes

Unlike many other mansions on the French Riviera, Château Soligny was not built by a foreigner, but by the French Count Armand Paul Doria in 1868. 

In 1880, the castle was bought by a wealthy Parisian, the owner of the Bon Marché commercial center in Paris, Aristide Boucicaut, who expanded the house. Aristide Boucicaut, who came from a simple family, became rich thanks to his talent, innovative ideas, and commercial acumen. He is considered the founder of modern commerce in France.

The castle has survived to this day in its original form and was transformed into an ultramodern mansion in 2014.

In 2019,   this luxurious estate was sold for about  50 million euros, but in our portfolio, there is always a unique estate on the French Riviera with history and charm.
