Aubette (building)

L'Aubette is a historic building on the Place Kléber in Strasbourg, France. It was built by Jacques-François Blondel in 1765–1772 on the site of a medieval monastery, but was burnt out in 1870. In 1926, three avant-garde artists, Theo van Doesburg, Sophie Taeuber-Arp and Jean Arp, were commissioned to create a new interior. The building is a historic monument and is open to the public.
