Hôtel des Ursins is a pseudo-medieval townhouse designed by architect Fernand Pouillon and completed in 1958 in Paris's 4th arrondissement. Despite its twentieth-century construction, the building evokes historical architectural forms through stylistic references to medieval design, representing a modern interpretation of the aristocratic hôtel particulier tradition for which the area is known.
