Location

The embassy is located at 6 rue Cimarosa in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.

The construction of the mansion is the work of the architect Jacques Hermant. The building is in the Belle Époque style. It was commissioned by entrepreneur, businessman and art lover Léon Orsodi in January 1895, who lived there until 1923.In January 14, 1926, the building is purchased in the name of the Argentine government on a message from Argentine President Marcelo Torcuato de Alvear by Frederico Alvarez de Toledo, Argentine Ambassador to Paris, but without the authorization of the executive power. The next government refuses the purchase authorization and the house becomes the ambassador's residence in a personal capacity. The headquarters of the embassy was finally installed there on February 10, 1964 .

In 1900, the embassy sat at 9 rue Alfred de Vigny, in the 8th arrondissement of Paris.
