Cité Elgé were French film studios located in Paris. They were constructed in 1905 in the Buttes-Chaumont area of the city by the Gaumont Film Company, a pioneer of European cinema.[1] They were also known as the Studios des Buttes-Chaumont. For a period they were the largest studios in the world.
In 1953 the studios came under the control of the RTF television organisation.[2] They closed in the 1990s and were redeveloped for residential use.
The documentary dedicated to the history of the studios "Les Buttes-Chaumont, Legendary Studios", directed by Jean-François Méplon and Fabien Lepage, produced by Olivier Wlodarczyk for Egodoc, was broadcast on April 3, 2015 on France 3 Paris Île-de-France.[3]
