Hotel de La Villestreux, a neoclassical mansion built 1743-54 by Landais, between the Place de la Petite-Hollande, the Rue Kervegan and the Quai Turenne, on the Ile Feydeau, in Nantes, Pays de la Loire, France. The building was home to Nicolas Perree de La Villestreux, slave trader and shipowner, and is listed as a historic monument. Nantes was an important trading port, profiting greatly from the slave trade from 17th - 19th century. The Ile Feydeau area, a former island in the Loire, was developed from the 1720s with large mansions built by wealthy shipowners and slave traders. Picture by Manuel Cohen
