In 1900, he traveled to Europe as an Argentine ambassador and lived in Paris for many years. He was in charge of the monumental Argentine pavilion next to the Eiffel Tower<\/strong><\/a>, at the Universal Exposition of Paris<\/a> in 1889. This left a great admiration in Mr. Paz for the cultural refinement and technical progress of the time in France<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

Before his return, he commissioned the French architect<\/a> Louis-Marie Henri Sortais<\/strong> to design a mansion of unusual dimensions for the time, with about 12,000 m\u00b2. The Argentine aristocracy tried to turn Buenos Aires into another neighborhood in Paris.<\/a> This Ch\u00e2teau was just one of his examples.<\/span><\/p>\n

Paz Palace, My Dream<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

His dream was to turn that palace into the presidential residence. His house when he was president. But it could not be. He did not become president. He couldn’t even see his finished work. Jos\u00e9 C Paz<\/strong> died in 1912, two years before the inauguration of his palace<\/strong>. It was terminated by his descendants and his wife, Zelmira D\u00edaz Gallardo, and his two sons, Ezequiel and Zelmira.<\/span><\/p>\n

The facade of the building is inspired by the Palace of Chantilly<\/strong>. Another of the fronts is inspired by the fa\u00e7ade of Napoleon III’s new Louvre Museum. These are just some of the examples of Jos\u00e9 C Paz’s obsession with France. The Great Ballroom, one of the first environments visitors are surprised to enter, is a small copy of the Versailles Gallery of Mirrors<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

It is a huge baroque-style room illuminated by three windows and two striking bronze chandeliers with crystal caireles. It has a box in which different orchestras played during the festivities organized by the Paz family<\/span><\/p>\n

Ch\u00e2teau Paz 1916 -1938<\/span><\/strong><\/h2>\n

Between 1916 and 1938, the Palacio Paz had its heyday. In those years, sumptuous banquets<\/strong> were offered in the Great Hall of Honor, a room with a marked Renaissance style with Gothic touches that still today features walnut furniture carved by renowned French<\/a> cabinetmakers.<\/span><\/p>\n

In those meetings it was common to find men in the Smoking Room<\/strong> and women in the Ladies Room<\/strong>, a rococo-style environment with huge mirrors and paintings referring to motherhood. In this room is the most important lamp in the palace. It is a bronze chandelier with about 150 Bacaratt crystals<\/strong> and 70 lamps.<\/span><\/p>\n

Great Hall of Honor<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

The highest ranking guests were received in the Great Hall of Honor<\/strong>, an environment located between the wings of the building and one of the most striking from the architectural and the visual. It is an immense space in the neo-baroque style with a height of 21 meters crowned by a huge dome. It has a huge marble staircase that leads to several rooms and also allows you to observe the room from above. The hall is crowned by an immense dome covered in stained glass windows that shape the Sun King.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n

Another impressive environment is what the Jos\u00e9 C Paz office was to be. It has a huge fireplace and its sliding doors with Art Nouveau style stained glass of 200 pounds each sheet.<\/span><\/p>\n

The Palace of Paz<\/strong> belonged to the family until 1938<\/strong> when, as a result of the debts of the rancher Aar\u00f3n de Anchorena<\/strong>, the second marriage of Paz’s daughter, the palace had to be sold.<\/span><\/p>\n

Since then, it has belonged to the C\u00edrculo Militar of Argentina, a civil association founded by and for Army officers, but which today, 80 years later, functions as a social club.<\/span><\/p>\n
