The Theatre of Odéon, which opened its doors in 1782, is the oldest Parisian Theatre Auditorium still upright. It was built, on the old grounds of the hotel of Condé, by the architects Charles de Wailly (1730-1798) and Marie Joseph Peyre (1730-1785) representatives of the neo-classic style, which they will contribute to popularize.

They will present several projects. That which will be accepted is conceived on a rectangular plan. The principal frontage is avoided of a rectilinear colonnade. Bridges, on each side, led then to coffees located in the buildings which flank the theatre, on the other side of the street. An arcade makes the turn of the building.
