Discover the magnificent Hôtel Pams on rue Emile Zola.
It was Pierre Bardou, son of the founder of the J.O.B. cigarette paper company, who used his family fortune to buy a house on rue E. Zola in 1852, followed by other neighboring properties in 1872, and build the first glass-lit workshops.
After his death in 1892 and the construction of a new factory across the street, his son-in-law, the politician Jules Pams, was finally able to transform the house to his taste. He called in the architect Léopold Carlier, who remodeled the monumental staircase with its paintings by Gervais, the ceremonial salons and unified the patio-garden with its Art Nouveau galleries.
When his wife Jeanne died in 1916, Jules Pams remarried two years later to Marguerite Holtzer, who sold the hotel to the city of Perpignan in 1946.
