Centenaire villa Noailles

Centenaire villa Noailles - © Villa Noailles Hyères

From March 30 to December 31, 2023

A century of History and stories

In 2023, the arts centre celebrates the Centenary of the Clos Saint-Bernard, known as the villa Noailles!

A century ago, Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles received as a wedding present an extensive land on the heights of the city of Hyères, facing the golden islands, on which they decided to commission young architect Robert Mallet-Stevens for
“a small, interesting house to live in”. 2023 will mark the Centenary of this extraordinary architectural adventure, as well as the 50 years of the acquisition of the villa Noailles by the city of Hyères and the 20 years of the creation of the arts centre.

A dense programme launched in March 29th, 2023 will pay tribute to its history and to its illustrious founders. With notably all the artworks collected by Charles and Marie-Laure de Noailles bear witness to their taste and their commitment to support all the artistic disciplines. An opportunity to discover or rediscover this unique and unclassifiable holiday home where the couple entertained friends, artists, and intellectuals and where an extraordinary piece of the artistic and cultural history of the 20th century was written.

For more than twenty years now, the arts centre has been relentlessly supporting and promoting the new generations of artists in the fields of fashion, photography, design, architecture and interior design, thereby perpetuating the history that began one century ago.

Starting March 29, the art center pays tribute to this beautiful artistic history.
