History
Foundation
On 1 May 1893 the Conseil d’État recognised the foundation as a public utility and accepted the donation from Madamoiselle Dosne to set it up. She was sister-in-law to the former president Adolphe Thiers and allocated 120,000 francs to its upkeep.[1] It was then attached to the Institut de France. In 1903 a specialist library was added to the foundation for use by its past and present pensionaries.[2]
Until 1986 its pensionaries were housed for three years each in the hôtel particulier on rond-point Bugeaud (now place du Chancelier-Adenauer) in Paris.[3]
