Louis Vuitton in Asnières

Five years after founding his namesake Maison in 1854, Louis Vuitton began to outgrow his Parisian headquarters, leading him to relocate to Asnières, a village a few kilometers northwest of the French capital. Housing both the founder’s family home as well as his already renowned trunkmaking operations, the Asnières location remains the heart and soul of Louis Vuitton over 160 years later.

The exceptional savoir-faire of the Asnières artisans continues to be passed down today at the very same Eiffel-style workshops where craftspeople still create a selection of pieces including all trunks, exotic leather goods, and custom orders.
