Skeleton In The Closet? Decades-Old Corpse Discovered During Parisian Mansion Reno
  • 4 years ago
A 30-year-old corpse was found during renovations of a mansion in Paris.
A man's body was discovered in the basement of a building undergoing building works in Oudinot street.
According to CNN, French police have opened a murder investigation. The mansion is located in Paris' exclusive 7th district.
Abandoned since the mid-18th century, the property fetched roughly $41.2 million at auction in January.
Given that the remains of the man are so old, the auctioneer says it's unlikely the discovery will impact the renovations.
