Maison Batache

In the late 1800s, a visionary young man named Nicolas Batache was born in the Ottoman Al-Askaleh, now known as El-Mina, situated on the breathtaking shore of North Lebanon. Driven by ambition, Nicolas built a business empire helping establish the thriving port of Tripoli, facilitating a flourishing trade route between Italy and Lebanon, and working with his brother George, the consul of Italy in Lebanon. However, amidst his extensive travels and ventures, Nicolas Batache developed an unwavering affection for the picturesque town of Hasroun, captivated by its beautiful red tiles, charming surroundings, and fostered by his close friendship with the Maronite Patriarch of Lebanon, Anthony II Peter Arida.
Determined to create his summer sanctuary in the heart of Hasroun, Nicolas searched for the perfect location overlooking the holy valley of Kadisha, where he could relish the most awe-inspiring view imaginable. Enthralled by Venetian and modern art styles, he engaged the services of a talented Italian engineer, to transform his dream into a concrete reality. In 1940, the exquisite Maison Batache was born, a testament to Nicolas Batache's impeccable taste and unwavering devotion to Hasroun.
Years have passed, and today Maison Batache is under the ownership of Nicolas Batache, the grandson of the original proprietor. With a deep desire to honor his grandfather's legacy and showcase the profound beauty of Hasroun and her inhabitants, Nicolas strives to preserve the memory and essence of this remarkable village through Maison Batache.
Nestled in the heart of Hasroun, a town fondly referred to as the "rose of the mountain" by the poet Lamartine, the Batache Residence greets you at the entrance of the town's ancient souk. It is conveniently located just 14 kilometers away from the majestic Cedars of God and its renowned ski slopes, a mere 13 kilometers from the awe-inspiring Wadi Qannoubine and its ancient monastery, and within close proximity to the Gebran Khalil Gebran Museum, the Kadisha grotto, Bqakafra, and St. Charbel House.
