The Hôtel de Beauvais (French pronunciation: [otɛl d(ə) bovɛ]) is an hôtel particulier, a kind of large townhouse in France, at 68 rue François-Miron, 4th arrondissement, Paris, currently the seat of the Administrative Court of Appeal of Paris. Until 1865 rue François-Miron formed part of the historic rue Saint-Antoine and as such was part of the ceremonial route into Paris from the east. The hôtel was built by the royal architect Antoine Le Pautre for Catherine Beauvais starting in 1657. It is an example of eclectic French Baroque architecture. Since 1966 it has been a monument historique.
